From December 3rd, Abbey is offering zero per cent on balance transfers for 13 months to all new credit card customers. In addition, it has extended its supermarket cashback - so new customers taking out an Abbey credit card can get cashback until the end of July, and existing customers until the end of March. The 5% cashback applies on the first £1,000 worth of purchases from major supermarkets bought with an Abbey credit card. Given that the average household spend in large supermarkets is £190.23 per month, according to recent research, the £1,000 limit covers over 5 months' worth of shopping and is worth up to £50, claims the bank. New customers have until July 31st to make the most of the limit. Existing customers (who have been signing up since the card launched in September) will now have two more months - until March 31st - to reach their limit, although it's worth noting that the cap of £50 still applies. Other features of the Abbey credit card include 0% on purchases for 3 months, and an APR of 15.9%.
