    Managed to successfully transfer the maximum amount at the balance transfer rate from Barclaycard to my bank account using my MBNA card as a mule. I the second transfer of the remaining available balance hit my account today.

    I think the Ts & Cs of one of my credit cards says it's forbidden to deliberately put the account into credit so I recommend others check their agreements before giving this a go!

    Also I agree that moving lots of money into an account and instantly moving it out again will probably raise money laundering flags in some computer somewhere which may delay your ability to get the money back.
