Transfering between Barclaycards??

Hi all.

I currently have a Barclaycard Initial on which the interest free period on balance transfers has just expired.
I didn't manage to clear it on time unfortunately but the balance isn't huge anyway so happy with that.

My missus has just been accepted for a Barclaycard Platinum with 27 month balance transfer offer.

Can we do a B/T between these cards or is transfering between cards of the same supplier, regardless of who owns it, not allowed?

Thanks in advance.....

    No - you can't do Bcard to Bcard.

    Shame.

    I completely understand why though.

    I mean, why would they?

    They might aswel give cash away!

    But you could transfer to another card, if you have one, (which would cost c. 3%) then do a balance transfer to the new BC. You'd have two sets of fees but it could still be much better than paying the standard rate of interest for 2 years
