Can I transfer part of my card balance to another provider?

I have finally managed to consolidate 3 cards to one, which makes a hefty and very motivating balance to clear but I am determined to do it. I could only get 12 months 0% through an existing card as I have a reduced income now and have missed a payment recently. My question is, at that time, can I transfer part of the balance to another card as I suspect I won't be able to transfer the whole amount, or can you only transfer whole balances?
Thankyou for any help!

Welcome to MSE :wave:
You can certainly transfer partial balances. Good luck!Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??

yes, part balance is very possible.
just work to reduce it as far as you can, and then, at the end of your 0% deal, apply for a card from a different provider and move as much of the balance to a 0% deal as you can. hopefully all of it. but if just part, you could apply for a third card to move the rest...and if not, just pay the minimum on the 2nd card and focus all attention on clearing the interest-generating balance on the 1st card.0
