    Hmm, better apply quickly. Not sure how I could get the BT to my Saving though as egg is tied up with 15k of anniversary offer.

    Any suggestions?

    With M&S, BT's must be done within 30 days of the date of your acceptance letter. This should give you around 5-6 weeks to "sort something out".

    I've read on these forums that most people plan ahead for their anniversary offer by obtaining an Egg Blue card for it's "mule" use - it's certainly what I plan to do next year.

    Another option might be to apply for a Virgin card simultaneously. On the plus side, this could be done in the timescale available. On the down side, 2 applications together might be a problem - I'm not sure if the CC companies report searches "live" or at the end of the month?

    Then again, the current M&S offer could be superceded by a 12 month deal - always possible with falling interest rates! However, they could of course pull the plug altogether on 0% and go the way of Capital One with "low" LOB rates.

    Your call!

    New offer is 6 months on BT's only, no 0% on purchases.
