    Yes, keep the Egg Money card, very useful as a mule card as well as earning cashback on purchases and, in some cases if you're lucky, on cash transfers too ;)

    I've had two repeat offers on Egg Visa, first one was 6mth @ 0% with 2.5% fee and then more recently I got a 6.9% LOB rate but have just cleared that off so not sure whether I shall keep the card any longer. Depends how willing they are to make any further offers I guess ;)

    thats what i mean.....6 months @ 0% @ 2.5% fee seems worthless......and its only 5 months these days on a aniversary offer

    I know, it barely seems worth it if you just want to stooze, but handy for extending 0% credit with a BT if you're not in a position to pay off another card at the time, plus won't incur an unnecessary search on CRF by applying for a new card.
