  • Anybody successfully applied for the better offer either online or on phone?

    How do credit limits compare to other cards?

    Anybody now how to get an invite?
  • I'm desperate for on of these, as it's fast approaching 'swap-time'!!

    If anyone has a spare leaflet from the Mail-on-sunday, please could you PM me for my address and post it to me?

    I would be eternally grateful!

    Cancel this. I've just found one in our recycle bin! I bought it, but obviously didn't read it as thoroughly as i do the express. (Martin, are you watching? :)

    Our leaflet in the Mail was for 6 months - I've searched it all but can't find anything about an extension upto 18 months.

    Mind you if I have to pay 3% then my currently monthly payment would be £118 which is more than I'm paying with my current Natwest card (Balance just short of £4k). I think I'll just stick to selling stuff on ebay and then transfer sales money to credit card. "What you never had, you won't miss" as my nanna used to say ;)

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!
  • I tried calling and was first told don't know anythign about it, then when I said there seems to be some confusion - some ppl know, some don't, & some ppl are receiving invites..then suddenly it wasn't all news to her!! She said it's inviatation only! Why are they being so coy....

    Well I tried the online appl & none of the codes worked with that. ANyone managed to get thru yet (without an official invite)

    Can the code for the 0%, 18 month, no miinimum spend & pref no 2% charge be confirmed by anyone plse?

    Thanks!

    I have rummaged thru bin re mail on sunday, but can only find Capital one leaflets 0% for 6 months. No sign of 18 months at 0%. The ref nos are very similar to those quoted by other folk earlier. - Is this summat to do with where you live? I live nr Chester (nr Liverpool).
  • I`ve just received the Capital One card offer. Thought, too good to be true! Read every word of all the small print (got a headache now) and couldn`t fault it. I appear to have been offered the Full Free Monty! No minimum spend, no BT charge and at the end of the 18 months an APR of 9.9%, not that I will be using it.
    I`m BT`ing all the debt from my Halifax One card, which itself was a free 6 month BT.
    The code at the bottom of the page is 8453/SEP. Deadline 29 Oct 2004.
    The blurb says my balance should be transferred in 7 working days! I`ll try to keep you posted. :)

    Has anyone got a spare one of these application forms?

    If so please PM me. My current card runs out soon and I'm looking for a good deal to swap to.

    Thank you.
  • Sky TV subscribers - Look carefully inside your October Sky magazine - there's an application form for CapitalOne's 0% 18 month offer inside!! ;D ;D ;D
  • Not necessarily - mine was for 6 months :(

    I was beginning to think my October Sky mag would never arrive in time - it's the last day in September and it only arrived today!

    Anyway, mine was for 6 months too. Plus 8 more items of junk from various companies (that doesn't include the mag itself).

    Do you mean actually 'in' the Sky mag, or a leaflet that came 'with' the sky mag? ???
