BarclayCard confusion

webbhost

Hi all,

Okay so I received my barclay card today - I got it off the internet because money supermarket (and barclay-card site itself) advertised it with 12 months interest free spending...

However upon looking at the leaflet (welcome, discover everything that your barclaycard can do for you) - it says quote; "Enjoy interest-free credit: If you settle your balance on your card in full every month, you can enjoy a period of interst free credit on the things you buy"

So... does this mean I have 12 months interst free spending if I pay off the card in FULL every month..... or do I just need to make the minimum payments every month until the 12 months expire (which was my initial thoughts until reading this).#

I'm hoping that this is just a generic leaflet and the 12 months interest free spending applies on top of this...?

Sorry for being thick, pretty olbvious question I know but I have to phone someone tomorrow anyway so I might also ask them whilst I am on the phone.

Just to clarify, this is the card I have had..

A quick call to Barclaycard will answer your question.

0% on purchases for 14 months from account opening means you jsut pay the minimum and no intrest is charged for 14 months

Thanks for that ... got to phone them tomorrow so might ask them anyway... I gotta ask them what date interest kicks in anyway, cause I ideally want the whole balance gone before the date.
