Hi all,

I'm just wondering if anyone knows if Santander offer any existing credit card customers any balance transfers offers etc or if its worth just closing the account down. I can't seem to find anything online so thank you in advance.

    I have a Santander credit card and they have been offering me 12 months 0% with a 3% BT fee regularly/on a monthly basis, not the greatest of offers but not the worst either.

    Don't know if it makes any difference but I've only been using this card for a few subscriptions, bit of online spending and I've been using around 10% (max 10%) of my limit and paying it off 'in full' every month.

    How do they send you these offers as their online banking screens a bit rubbish compared to the likes of Barclays how show what offers you have.

    Yeah forgot to mention that important bit, I too cannot find the BT offer anywhere when logged on, it's a mystery. The way they do it is by email, that has the offer detail on AND the offer expiry date so in order to make use of the offer should I choose to I keep a note of the offer and the expiry date on my household expenses spreadsheet. 

    I haven't used one of their offers for a while now as like I said they aren't the greatest but if memory serves the last time I did use one of their offers there was no mention of the deal when actually processing it, very strange way of doing things imo.

    Only way round it I can see is to ring them and ask if you have any offers available and depending on what they say take it from there.

    My cards 
    Barclaycard - used to send letters every month but I think I turned that off, in the app is "transfers & offers"
    Halifax - on the app often on an advert splash screen after you sign in, else there is an obvious link with "your transfer offers"
    Lloyds - same as Halifax
    NatWest- have to go into the credit card bit of the app but has an option Balance Transfers which has an "offer" icon if there is one available
    Sainsbury's - on the app they have adverts, currently flogging me a loan, but if there is a BT offer on there I must have missed it
  • Sainsbury's email you as do Santander. Can't send a copy of Santander as it'll identify me but here's the Sainsbury's one. 

    I'm Santander select and have 3 cards with them but rarely see offers - might be cos I've got the purchase, zero and world cards.

    I hunted through my emails and couldn't see one from them, though I know I have had them before, so maybe I deleted them hence missing them. Not 100% but I think they mail them too
