If you live in the UK, I’ve found a website that may be of some service to you. If you’ve been looking into credit cards recently, I want to hope that you’ve come across mint.co.uk. They offer a low interest credit card with a competitive introductory offer and a host of benefits as well. A quick break down (taken from the website) is as follows:
* 0% on balance transfers until 1 November 2008 (2.5% balance transfer fee)
* 0% on purchases until 1 April 2008
* 0% bonus offer until 1 July 2009 on balances transferred during January 2009 (2.5% fee)
* Typical 14.9% APR (variable)
* Up to £7,500 credit limit
* Free online account management where you can download statements and receive email and text alerts
* Online fraud protection
* No annual fee
* Unique mc2 card design
* Free additional card for a friend or partner
* Chip and PIN security
* Worldwide acceptance at over 24 million locations, wherever you see the MasterCard sign
* 24 hour MINT customer service
* MINT+ offers on wine, prize draws, travel and leisure services
I wish I lived in the UK at the moment, that £7,500 sounds pretty sweet considering I’ll be moving soon and getting a credit card is on my priority list right now. I think that’s the equivalent of like $10k-$15k USD. Not too bad, eh?
