Barclaycard offer

I have today received a letter from BC advising me they have increased the amount I can now take out on the card and further went on to say they are waving the fee for having a cash advance but the apri would be 26.5%.

As I have a 2.9% bt on this card I will not be taking them up on their very kind offer and generous offer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have had this offer aswell Mable.

    I think it is to try and get us to spend on a BT card and make them lots of interest.

    I certainly won't be using it for cash advances.
