0% balance tranfer to current account

Options
I logged on to the online facillity for the virgin credit card for the first time today. It says i can transfer money to a current account at 0% for 15 months, when i activated my card i enquired and they confirmed this is correct!

So does this sound right? i was gonna use the egg trick but now ive no need? What do you think?

Thanks

    Sure virgin card £3000, only took 7 days for pin and card to arrive!

    Put down £15,000 as earnings, credit rating of 756 / 1000 by checkmyfile.

    Last week sky gave me only £500 and eg onmly £900. My first ever card last year i got £1500. No idea why so much variation!
