I have Virgin and Citibank, which is next?

Hi

I am presently stoozing using my Citibank card with its 0% on about £10,000 ending in September, and also a Virgin Mastercard with its 0% on about £14,000 ending in May next year, both of which, I think, are administered by MBNA.

I "tidied up" my old stoozing cards pile over the last year or so, so should be able to do a non-MBNA card in August/September. I think Egg is out as I cancelled my old Egg card last month.

Any suggestions on which card I should apply for to roll-over the £10,000 or so I have on my Citibank card?

Thanks :-)

    Halifax tend to offer decent credit limits IME.

    Full list of cards (and issuers) on the stoozing site: http://www.stoozing.com/0fees.php

    No harm in looking just now, but no guarantee it'll still be in the top 5 come August/September.

    Many thanks for that CannyJock.

    The Halifax might be spot on (I closed my last Halifax card in June last year!!), but I will have a look at the list of cards an issuers.

    Thanks again

    I am having trouble getting the Halifax Card link from the Stoozing site to work.

    Could someone else give it a try? I click on the link to apply, a new window opens as it should, I click the Start Application button, and then it says "There has been an error handling your request, please try later".

    I have tried daily for 3 days..................perhaps the 0% for 15 months offer has been withdrawn :-( Could someone lese give it a try?

    Couple of people have reported this since Halifax revamped their cards. Best bet is to go to their website directly and apply from there rather than wait around.

    They've got a card that gives 13 months at 0% for a 3% fee, or a card that gives 10 months on BT's and purchcases for 10 months.

    The stoozing calculator says the 13 month one will give you a higher profit.
