in Credit cards
Hi guys quick question. I’ve set a balance transfer from a new card to clear my Barclaycard. Problem is I’ve totalled it up wrong (added pending transactions to balance doh!) and I’m sending £400 more than The balance left on card. What happens?

It'll either go through, or they'll return it, or they'll close your account.
Those are also the options in order of likelihood.

Surely it will just leave a credit balance on the card its being transferred to?1
