Tesco credit card transfer

Hello, please could anyone tell me if you can transfer a balance to another persons credit card?
I used my credit card for my daughters purchase for £2000 and she would like to take her debt onto a card. Is there any way I/we can do this? Could she maybe open a new credit transfer card?
Any ideas please 😀 As I'm not happy carrying her debt !

    Yes, in most cases.
  • What would be the best way of doing this? Would she be able to apply for a balance transfer credit card and put the debt onto it?
    I'm not really sure ! Many thanks for your help

    Hi Jane

    Maybe the easiest way would be for your daughter to apply for a credit card that allows money transfers to her bank account, then they don't query anything about where she's going to pay it to, she can just give it to you. There may be a slightly higher fee to this than a balance transfer though, but it won't be much more. Hope you get it sorted x

    Tell her to apply for a card like the AA BT card which gives 22 months interest free credit and has not BT fee. It was features on the Wednesday Money Tips email.

    Why didn't you ask this before you agreed to give her £2000?
