Let's hope egg and virgin don't follow suit or that'll be the end of future big stoozes. Still, I've got mine.

Oh, hallelujah - the poor credit card companies are saved ! Praise be to MBNA. Let's all campaign for higher bank charges, too.

One down. I imagine EGG will maintain their practice of allowing themselves to be used as a mule, just to annoy their competitors.

I dont think so, as a money transfer is more profitable then a SBT

Why?

I stooze now, but when I was in debt, the credit card companies fleeced me.

I reckon it would take me approx 7-10 years of stoozing at my current level before I could break even on what I must have paid them in interest over the years.

It's revenge, not profiteering as far as I am concerned;)

Why deny me my small pleasure?;)

Yes M-O-N-E-Y S-A-V-I-N-G. Paying less interest on an offset mortgage by using 0% funds from a credit card is money saving.

A number of posters on various sites have mentioned that they have received changes to their Ts & Cs. If this is the case, then it will make stoozing harder to get in to. What is not clear is whether this change applies to all customers and to all MBNA variants (e.g. Abbey, A&L, Virgin etc). For the last fews days the stoozing website has been running a poll to see whether people have received these changes to their Ts & Cs. At the moment it would appear that not everyone has received such notifications and some cards look pretty much untouched. If you want to look at the results or participate in the poll it is on the the Stoozing credit card's board at the stoozing website. I won't post a link because MSE is not keen on me posting them too much.

Well the founder of this site has been a major advocater of stoozing. The irony is its probably because of sites like this that have let to the reduction in stoozing activities.
