New Egg card, to transfer or not to transfer?

Sorry readers, silly question, I've been doing further 'reading', ignore me. Just feeling a bit unsure cos of egg ditching their customers. I guess if they accept my transfer and won't let me spend on it that'll be ok cos I don't want to anyways.

Hmmmm, in a quandry here. I applied for an egg card through Quidco about a week ago, egg said yes, and gave me a limit of £3600.

Now, I mainly applied cos it said £20 per application, and had a 0% balance transfer offer - I've got this £900 I've been tarting around over the last two years (it was more than £900 then), I don't intend to use the card to buy anthing.

So should I transfer or not?

    I can't see Egg selecting you as a customer to get rid of (based on what, exactly) five minutes after they've accepted you. At the very least they will allow you to keep the 0% on balance transfers for the whole of the original period. So don't worry.
