The Egg Card
The Egg Card is one of the most popular credit cards in the UK, and was a pioneer of easy online banking, along with introducing the balance transfer deal to this country back in 2000.
It's a feature they still rely on heavily, with a pretty good introductory deal of 0% on all balance transfers until 1st April 2011 combined with a 0% purchases deal until 1st June 2010.
In all cases, a balance transfer fee applies, as is unfortunately the case more or less everywhere nowadays - see the egg site for details of the current rates.
The standard rate of the egg card is 16.9% typical APR, and by choosing egg you'll get special offers and discounts with selected retailers as well as discounts on egg's insurance products.
