0% until 18 April 2004 = 8 months.

Interesting. Was this a mailshot, a telephone call or did you ring them? Is there an offer code?0 -

When in Lloyds TSB yesterday paying my Halifax credit card , I was asked if I would be interested in one of their credit cards as quote, she thought they could considerably cut my payments, maybe they have launched a new 0% promotion.
I have arranged for them to telephone me Saturday morning to discuss so I'll keep you posted.0
