6 August 2015 at 4:08PM in Stoozing: free cash from credit cards

Hi,

I've just topped up my Revolut prepay card using my MasterCard credit card. This hasn't appeared on my statement as a cash withdrawal, just a regular transaction (like paying for a service/goods).

Presumably, if you could get a credit card with a long interest free period, you could transfer funds across to a prepay card such as Revolut and then withdraw funds in GBP from any cash machine without the usual interest charges incurred by Credit card providers?

Has anyone done this?

Thanks
