Release Summary: M&S Money has announced a brand new 0 per
cent offer exclusive to new credit card customers
Press
Release Body: M&S Money, the financial services
division of Marks & Spencer, has announced
an exclusive offer on its credit cards for new customers.
The
offer, which began at the start of September, provides new M&S
Money credit card holders with 0% interest on all shopping
for ten months from the account opening and 0% interest for six
months on balance
transfers made within six months of the account opening.
New
M&S
Money Credit Card customers will also benefit from
earning M&S points with every use of the card as well as well
as no cash advance fee and 55 days interest free when buying M&S
Travel Money with the card.
Brendan
Cook, M&S Money Chief Executive said, "This
new card means that M&S are now one of the few providers in
the market to be offering excellent 0% deals on both purchases
and balance transfers. This card not only has a competitive APR
but also benefits from the M&S Loyalty Scheme, making it one
of the most attractive credit cards in the market.
"Additionally,
whilst a number of other providers have recently been raising
their interest rates and shortening their 0% offers, we're delighted
to be bucking this trend - at a time when consumers will appreciate
this the most."
The
credit
card offer from M&S Money also allows
customers to conveniently manage their account online, with additional
security from Spend Safe fraud protection. M&S Money has also
guaranteed savings of 8% on holidays with the exclusive travel
club.
