MBNA Platinum Rewards Credit Card
The new MBNA Platinum Rewards card features a great points program that rewards your credit card spending. Once you've built up a stash of points you can convert them into shopping vouchers which give you discounts on the high street, exclusive wine deals, holidays or flights, or even plain old cash to spend on whatver you choose.
The card also features a 0% balance transfer deal for 13 months, although the dreaded balance transfer fee applies, along with 0% on purchases for intropurchperiod
The standard rate is 16.9% typical APR, which is just about the going rate these days for a general card, and there's no annual fee (why should there ever be?).
