Got 0% BT offer, any way to get cash from it?

I know, I know, I should of applied for a money transfer card :(

I applied recently for a balance transfer card as I have a few thousand balance coming to an end on a Virgin Money card, so applied to MBNA, and was approved with a £12k limit over 37 months, I only really need £4k for the balance transfer (I'm not moaning, just plesantly suprised)

Is there any way I can get money transfer from the new card, at the same low rate for 37 months?

I'm guessing not, but thought I'd ask and see just in case there is a way

  • You’d need to ask MBNA however probably not.

    Which MBNA credit card did you apply for?

    I only ask as I've just looked myself; they have the Platinum Balance Transfer card (up to 37 months) which also has 0% on money transfers (fee of 4%) that's valid for up to 20 months?

    I don't know if you were offered it as part of their eligibility checks but if they'll allow you to swap products the MBNA All Round Credit card has a 0% money transfer offer for up to 28 months.
    It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.
