Which Cards offer online paper free completion?

rigboy

Hi, I am looking for a card, preferably with decent balance transfer rates which can be applied for and completed online, i.e. don't need to sign paper copies and send docs via snail mail etc.

I work overseas for long periods of time so am rarely at home and would not be able to return said paperwork in time, but I am UK resident, decent credit rating and on the electoral roll etc.

Cheers

I know some of them do it as my existing card is Natwest and I just ticked a box online to say I accepted online terms etc and so didn't need to sign and return any paper copies.

Do any other companies offer this? The MBNA balance transfer deal looks good, but I've never dealt with them before so not sure what sort of completion options they offer.

Surprised no one has replied, unless no one has actually completed 100% online.

As for myself, well the only one that didn't require forms being sent and signed was Egg, but of course they are now gone.

Cards that in the past 5 years that I have applied for and DID require paperwork to be sent and signed M&S money, Halifax, Tesco and Virgin.

MBNA derivatives are all online

Creation cards, if accepted, are all done on line but I think the best deal with them is 12 months 0%.
One question...how would you be able to activate the card if you're not at home?

Thanks for the suggestions.

Depending on the card I would plan to call to get it activated, or activate online if possible, otherwise I would send the wife to activate it in the ATM.

She is usually at home to receive post, it is only my being there to sign that causes problems.

Barclaycard online apps

I second Barclaycard, I did it online a few weeks ago. Approved online and credit limit advised. BT done online straight away to the old card.

My card and pin have arrived but as its a BT card I've not even bothered to ring and activate the card. The account is working all good and I haven't had to sign anything or speak to anyone.
