Transfer to current account

Is there a credit card that offers long term transfers to your current account?

I have seen cards that offer a transfer for 60 days after the account has been opened but cant see a card that offers long term transfers to your current account?

    You need a money transfer card.

    Barclaycard gives me an offer every month.

    The 60 days may well mean that you have to make a transfer within 60 days of opening the account, not that the 0% interest period only lasts 60 days.

    MBNA, Barclaycard, also Natwest used to, but not sure if you have to have a current account with them.

    Thank you for the replies. I currently have a barclaycard simplicity 7.9% card. I get offers for balance transfers for 6.9% plus a fee but never once had an offer to my current account and had this card many years.
    I will look into MBNA. Thank you

    Is it a permanent feature of the MBNA Everyday Plus American Express® Credit Card to move money to your current account or do you have to wait for 'offers' to be available ?

    When you open the card it should give you the choice of balance transfer or money transfer. After the initial offers have been used, you get new offers every few months.

    It's a permanent feature. The card is also useful as a "mule" to get cash into your bank account from 0% balance transfer cards.
