    It's 15 months now, but could be 14 months by the time your application and BT are completed.

    There is a 2% uncapped BT fee (the major "catch" for someone with a high balance to transfer).

    The minimum repayments are 3%.

    Cap One have a bit of a reputation for sending you a totally different product than the one you applied for. There have been many stories on here this year about people applying for their 18 month 0% card and getting 9 month 0% cards or higher %APR cards.

    On the positive side, it's the longest deal on the market and might tempt some people who were considering LOB deals for some stability.
