£15,000 at 0% for 5 months from Egg

Mr_Clingford

I think applying for an increase in the first few months will always be a no. Does anyone else know different?

Yes, me. I have had the card since July and have doubled its limit from 3 - 6 k in the last few days.

Yes, me. I have had the card since July and have doubled its limit from 3 - 6 k in the last few days.

So over 3 months looks OK, anyone managed to increase in the first 3 months?

yep - 3.5k to 15k after having the card for 2 months. Upped in a fortnight. ;D

Deemy - How long you been with 'em?

Several years, went from 6k to 8k to 10k to 12k now 15k

Looking at the above few posts looks like I apply for an increase only when I get the card. Thanks everyone.

Q. If you can do SBTs anytime with Egg, then I suppose I can do a normal BT with another card to Egg & then transfer Egg to bank - effectively making any card a SBT card?

Absolutely ;D

Will be putting my £15,000 into my Egg 5.5% account next month when it's my anniversary ;D

Two questions though:

- Can I transfer the whole £15,000 or only 95% of it or something like that?

- Can I transfer direct to my Egg savings account, or do I send the money via my (First Direct) current account?

TIA

You can SBT/BT up to your credit limit with Egg ;D

I don't think it's wise/possible to SBT direct from Egg card to Egg savings - go via First Direct and use your debit card from First Direct to Egg savings

Dan29

Will do - thanks for that ... and thanks to Egg of course for the £340 they'll be giving me ;D
