Marbles Credit Card Balance Transfer

Hi,
I’m new to MSE and this forum so I’m really sorry if I post this question In the wrong place.  

I’d like some advice please, I’ve just been accepted for a Marbles card, and received it through the post today.  I want to do a balance transfer, but am not sure which cards I can transfer to it? Ie if other cards are part of the same group/related.

I have cards with HSBC/Lloyds/Halifax/First Direct and Barclaycard.

im going to pay them all off this year.  I was wanting to start by chipping away at the Halifax card.  Does anyone know if I can transfer from Halifax to Marbles? And get interest free?
thank you
C

    HSBC, Lloyds/Halifax and Barclaycard should all be fine.
    Only one that may be an issue is First Direct which is part of HSBC

    Marbles is run by New Day - so any of those can be transferred.
  • Just remember to be able to pay off anything you transfer over to Marbles within the promotional period (usually 6 months) or have a guaranteed ability to transfer to another card, as their standard rates are crazy high after the 0% ends!

    As ZX81 mentioned, you will be able to transfer across from any of the cards you mention, as they are not issues by NewDay.

    Marbles is run by HSBC so the others should be fine. Only one likely to be an issue is First Direct which is also part of HSBC
    No it’s not it’s New Day which used to be SAV Credit that run the Marbles Credit card, HSBC Sold it to them back in 2007. 
    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:

  • Dear All,  Thanks to everyone for your kind comments.  I will go ahead and start it off today.  I was really confused looking online as I had thought they were something to do with HSBC too.  and I was worried that someone like yourselves might know something i don't.

    Cheers Again
