0% balance transfer credit card with low or no transfer fee?

Hi,

I am interested in a credit card offering 0% on balance transfers for about 12months preferabally with no transfer fee's or very very low. I am planning to transfer about £2-3k.

Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks, Ash

    lol you joker.

    there are some no transfer fee cards but only 5 or 6 months. Do you really think the bank will give you a transfer for nothing?

    They used to until recently, caver, so it's not so outlandish an idea. I'm just wondering what the OP finds wrong with Martin's suggestions on this site.
    However hard up you are, never accept loans from your friends. Just gifts
  • Sorry I am quite new to this site n concepts, but what are martins suggestions, i really want zero transfer fee card with the longest 0% as possibe, plz suggest. thanks
  • There are none mate. You are looking at 2% to 3% balance transfer fee for a year or longer of 0%.

    Here's Martin Lewis' guide to balance transfers:

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cards/balance-transfer-credit-cards

    It includes the best life of balance transfer rates, longest 0% with fees and 0% offers with no fees.

    Are there any free transfer cards out there with a zero balance transfer for any period, I can't find any. I only need the zero rate for maximum 6 months.
