MBNA Purchase offer

Hi all hope someone can help as the callcentre staff at MBNA really didn't help me at all.


Have had the card for about 18months and existing 0%purchase and bt offer expired last month. I logged onto my online banking this morning and saw a new offer with the following offer:
"0.0% p.a. until 14 October 2016 on all new card purchases"


Are they offering a two week interest free period (to me this seems pointless) or are they saying I have until 14th October to make the purchases. As said the gentleman at MBNA didn't define the offer one way or another.


Thanks in advance

  • It reads to me as 0% for 2 weeks.

    Otherwise it would need an end date for it to read as an ongoing 0% offer.

    i.e. "0.0% p.a. for xx months until 14 October 2016 on all new card purchases"

    I'd call up again and ask to speak to someone else, sounds like you spoke to a trained monkey if they couldn't even give you a definitive answer.
