If you succeed on applying to Tesco, it takes 5 to 8 working days to get the card, and a day or two to arrange the transfer, so you need to do at least something to that other account before then.Tesco can take details of balance transfer requests with the application, but it seems not to actually do them until the account is validated by the cardholder phoning up when the card comes in the post
I'll just back-up what's been said here. Just received my balance transfer Tesco Credit Card today, 11 Days (7working) after application. I requested the balance transfer at the time of application and they reserve that figure from your credit limit but they only make the transfer request once you activate the card.0
