Balance Transfer Leaves a Balance!

You're around 22k on a 33k income, which is a fair amount. However, Sainsbury's are one of the more cautious lenders.
Try someone like MBNA. If rejected, leave it a while.0 -
Sure, that makes sense.
But it bothers me now that my un-used cards are being totaled against me, particularly when I don't use them.
Maybe I should get rid of them, leave a few months and try again. Hmmm....
Anyway, thanks for advice, must get some sleep now, 6am start!0 -
I'd close a couple - lenders know you could suddenly decide to spend on all of them up to the limit. Tesco need a gap of 6 months away from them before you qualify for new customer offersI’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Pensions, Annuities & Retirement Planning, Loans

Before you close them, ring and ask and see if any of them can do you a BT offer, if not close a couple and wait a few months then try for a new BT card0

Hi,
I got in touch with Tesco & they are offering a 0% balance transfer for 12 months for existing customers, but the offer expires on 2nd November. Guy said they do the offers on a monthly basis.
Just wondering if anyone knows this pattern/history with Tesco & if they are likely to come out with a better offer approaching Christmas - ie~: a longer 0% period??0 -
They usually vary person to person0
