Getting Barclaycard to offer a balance transfer!
Comments
-
I asked Barclaycard, and they said I'd get BT offers when my account went below 90% utilization. I'm currently shuffling debt from other cards, and sure enough, each time I pay some off and get it below 90%, the BT offer reappears immediately. It's probably worth ringing them and asking what the criteria is on your account.0

I've just checked and offers for next month are up already. BT has improved 0% until 1/8/18 for a 1.9% fee. Money transfer is 1.9% fee until 1/11/17. I've heard of other people getting 0.9% MT offers, which I would probably accept, but I've never had one.
It's difficult to work out what will happen, offers are very individual and may make sense to Barclaycard if not to us!0 -
along with MBNA, i find that Barclaycard regularly offer repeat BT deals. however, now that they have allowed additional accounts to be held again, i would look at applying for a new card with a great deal on. and then looking to merge the limits onto the new card.
with or without that approach, speak to them, and see what you can get them to do. sometimes you have to push them to get some profitable flex out of them. good luck.0 -

I took advantage of their 0.9 percent offer about 3 months ago for £8k for stoozing purposes. The offer was for 12 months.0
