Virgin Credit Card: 0% balance transfer for 13 months

Thu 21st Dec 2006

Virgin Money has announced that it is to increase the zero per cent per annum (pa) balance transfer on its new credit card to 13 months.

The Virgin Credit Card will also offer zero per cent on card purchases for a period of three months and then after this introductory period, the card will switch to a rate of 15.9 per cent APR.

By paying with the Virgin Credit Card, customers can benefit from a range of benefits such as ten per cent discounts at Virgin Holidays, Virgin Megastores and Virgin Wines. There is also 75 per cent off the joining fee at Virgin Active.

John Franklin, spokesman for Virgin Money, said: "Christmas can be an expensive time so as an extra bonus we have launched a card that gives people even longer to pay off their existing balances at a rate of zero per cent pa.

"Thirteen months interest free is a great opportunity for people to get their finances in order and beat the post Christmas blues."

With a Virgin Credit Card, customers can manage their accounts online or over the phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
