Barclaycard Balance Transfer

I know the general rule is dont spend money on a card which has a balance transfer on it but just wondered if it would make any difference to a Barclaycard Simplicity which has a 7.9% Apr on both balance transfers and purchases? As far as i am aware there is no fee to complete a balance transfer.

Would this mean you could transfer a balance to the card and use it for purchases without incurring any additional charges?

Would it make any difference to the date the interest was charged and increase payments in some way?
