Hi,

I'm interested in the latest Barclaycard offer of 22 months at 0% for balance transfers and 1.45% fee. My problem is I already have a Barclaycard MasterCard (converted from old Morgan Stanley card) and I don't think I'm eligible. Can anyone confirm if I take up the offer on the new Platinum Visa card?

I'm looking to transfer from a non-Barclaycard.

Thanks.

    Not 100% certain but I'm pretty sure the deal is for new customers only. Barclaycard don't even let you upgrade from one of their cards to another so I'm pretty sure you can't have two of them - might be wrong though.

    I have a Barclays GOLD Mastercard and have recently applied for (and since received) a Barclays Platinum Visa (with the Balance Transfer offer you speak of).

    There's no issue having more than 1 Barclaycard but you can't do Balance Transfers from 1 card to another card issued by the same bank.
