New account question - promotion related.

[Deleted User]

Hi guys,

I primarily use credit cards for the promotional rate on new purchases, once that's over and I've cleared the balance I move on

Want I'd like to know is, can I get the promotional rate of "xx months" of interest free on purchases if I've had the card before? Eg. I had a Tesco's card a couple of years ago which I canceled when the promotional rate ended, is there anything from stopping me applying for one and get the same/similar deal again?

Thanks.

Thanks! Is there any reason why they wouldn't? Surely even if they couldn't give me that rate again they'd still take me on as a customer?

Comes down to the scoring criteria more than anything
