Sainsburys/Barclaycard balance transfer

Hi

I have two credit cards. One is with Sainsburys and has a balance of £4200.  The other is with Barclaycard and has a balance of £4000. Both are 0% but the Sainsburys 0% has ended so I transferred it to the Barclaycard account on an 18 month 0% deal.  The original £4000 on Barclaycard has a few more months on a 0% deal. Sainsburys are now offering me a balance transfer deal at 0%. Can I transfer the original £4000 on to the Sainsburys account.  In other words swap the two balances around or would they not do that.

Sorry for the long question

    Yes you can, but check your Barclaycard terms to see which of the 0% balances would be transferred. 

    It will almost certainly be the one about to end as it both started first and will end first, but always check.
