Balance Transfer Bargains with Barclaycard Platinum

Check out this springtime opportunity to cut the cost of borrowing money.

Barclaycard is offering 0% on balance transfers for 20 months, and 25% off additional balance transfer fees (until the 3rd of May 2011). Available on Barclaycard’s lead Barclaycard Platinum and Platinum Purchase products, the offer is actually Britain’s longest ever transfer deal, and Barclaycard’s second unique “Balance Transfer Sale” incentive of the year.

This offer makes Barclaycard the first UK credit card provider to offer 0% on balance transfers for such a lengthy period. In fact, it’s the longest 0% balance transfer offer on the market today. New customers signing up between now and the 3rd of May can also take advantage of a 25% reduction on the handling charge when transferring multiple balances from other lenders – the highest balance transfer will incur a handling fee of 3.2%, with any additional transfers seeing effective handling fees of 2.74%.

Here’s the breakdown:

  • 0% interest on balance transfers for 20 months from account opening (3.2% handling fee applies)
  • 25% off any additional balance transfer fee when you transfer more than one balance (terms and conditions apply)
  • 0% interest on purchases for three months from opening your account.
  • A reward programme like no other, with Barclaycard Freedom you automatically earn while you shop at participating retailers.
  • With contact-less payment technology, a new quick and easy way to pay for purchases of £15 or under.
