Top balance transfer cards

The market for balance transfer cards has become a fiercely fought battle ground for all the top providers which makes it very fertile ground for customers looking to move their balance.

If you have a large balance on your credit card already, what you pay every month could simply be going towards covering the interest accrued each month. Switching to a market leading 0% balance transfer card could mean you stop paying interest on the balance you transfer for a while. Giving you a chance to start paying off the balance.

Barclaycard’s Platinum credit card with balance transfer is the longer 0% balance transfer on the market with a whole 2 years 2.8%BT fee applies before they will start charging interest on that balance but you will have to be quick, the 2 year offer will end on the 8th August 2011. For customers with a credit card balance of £3,000 might look to Halifax’s Balance transfer card with 0% for 20 months 3% BT fee applies. Finding the perfect credit card for your needs can be easy, start your search here

Before switching your credit card make sure you check the terms, conditions and criteria for each card to make sure you stand a good chance of being eligible because applying for a card and being rejected could damage your credit rating. If you want to check your credit profile, take advantage of Credit Experts 30 day trial.
