Just came across this offer from a link from Stoozing.com

If you go to barclays.co.uk and then click on the barclaycard link, you get a different offer, without BT fee, for 10 months.

Apart from the lack on SBT facility that makes it better than Virgin I think.

    £5000 @ 5% for 10 months is still a Stoozing profit of over £200 though.

    Got to be worth an application - unless you have one already like me :(

    I have just paid off my Bardlaycard Prem CC and cancelled it this week. Do you think they will consider me for this card?

    Are you sure Barclaycard don't SBT because when I opened my BC Platinum (Aug 2004) they transferred the cash into my current account and it was 0% for 12 months.

    Simon,

    Unlikely they will offer you one straight away, although maybe the prem card and the platinum card are different.

    Jim,

    I've trawled through the offer and see no mention of a BT fee on the summary box so think it is 10 months with no bt fee or 12 months with a BT fee per their 'normal' website.

    No FEE but from Charges section towards end of 10-month offer page:
    Cash, balance transfers and cheques: 2% (min. £2.00); 2.5% (min. £2.50) for Initial.

    Reduces profit to around £100

    It also says 'no handling fee' for transfers made in the first 60 days.

    I'm sure if there was a BT fee it would have to be more clearly stated. I guess it is worth calling to check though.

    Fair point.

    Have now tried calling them but person I spoke to can only tell me about a 0% 'till Janary '06 with 2% handling fee - capped at £50.
    Very helpfully advised that offers are changing all the time and I might want to visit a branch instead
