    You need to use a card that allows "super balance transfers". These allow you to transfer money not only to other CC's but to your current account so that you have direct access to the cash.

    MBNA cards such as Virgin allow this along with a few others. When you are activating the card over the phone, just confirm that it will not be a cash advance but a balance transfer, then give the account details you want to transfer to.
