Virgin and bal transfers

Hi all,

I'm expecting a virgin credit card to drop on my door matt shortly. And I believe THEY DO NOT charge a fee on opening balance transfers. Can any other users confirm this ?

Cheers :)
anger, denial, acceptance ;)

    girl i work with was after a card and went for the Virgin as their site had no BT fee and being MBNA had £5 minimum payment
  • Rover,
    That's confirmed, transferred the balance this week- no charge. The credit card cheques arrived this morning- and went straight into the shredder, lol. :D

    If you do the transfer over the phone there is no charge, if you do it over the Internet there is a charge !
  • Do it over the phone at the time you activate the card to be double sure. I've got the name of the guy I spoke to written down for future reference if necessary. ;)
