If I applied for a Egg card today would l lose 18 days interest free?

As subject really, I know it's interest free for 6 months but by applying on the 18th would I effectively be losing out on 18 days interest free credit?

...Or does it take 2 weeks for the application to get processed which would mean I would get approved at the ~start of next month?

    As EGG gives a set date you would lose 18 days interest free as your T&C's will be for April's applications. Hope this helps.

    I'd wait now until 1st May - Egg tend to have a rolling offer (ie next month's offer should expire on 1st November).
