    Can both me and my husband apply for this? Or should just one of us apply?

    I'm still waiting on my decision... will post here as soon as it comes through - I usually get instant decisions too... very odd.

    @mumma2one - I am planning on doing exactly the same as you - get the card, spend a quid, get the voucher and then close the account. I did exactly that with the SonyCard and had no problems at all. I totally understand you worrying but as long as you check out the Ts and Cs all should be OK :)

    /edit - just seen the main thread here:

    would this be the offer that is mentioned on the home page of this site ?

    Yes, am sure it was, but when I remembered to apply at 10pm tonight the offer was no longer on the home page so was delighted to find this posting without a lot of searching!

    I applied for the card via the link given on MSE before the deadline. Card arrived today but no mention with it about offer. Did everyone receive details with card or was it just on the website?
  • Hello everyone. Don't often post anything on here, but am a bit confused and would like to pass on a warning about this Barclaycard Offer.

    Have seen the Barclaycard balance transfer info on Moneysupermarket and decided to apply for a Barclaycard to use the 14 month interest free balance transfer with a 2.5% balance transfer fee - and with a £50 voucher to boot, I thought I could'nt lose.

    However, my card arrived today - no mention of the £50 voucher (which is now no longer on the Barclaycard link), and a Balance transfer fee of 2.9%.
    I have checked with Barclaycard, who tell me that the fee is definitely 2.5% (although I'm sure a lawyer would argue that if my terms and conditions say 2.9% then that is what I could be held to), and that providing I spend on the card before 30th Nov., then I am eligible for a voucher.
    Clever moneysavers will know that I must pay off my spend before arranging the balance transfer, otherwise the spend will attract interest for the whole term. However, only time will tell if the voucher offer really pans out!:j
