Transfering a CC balance onto a partners Credit Card

My partner has a credit card at 0% until Feb 06 and has been offered one from Barclays at 0% for 10 months.

Is it possible to transfer a credit card balance from my cards to hers?

    Yes, it is - but that would make her 100% liable for the debt, rather than you. You should make that clear to her before she agrees to proceed.

    Yes, I've done this several times this year (although not with Barclays). As a rule, they'll only need the (providers) name, card type & 16 digit number from your card.
