BT Credit Card Review

Montage of BT Credit Cards BT are slowly dominating your home - as well as phone and broadband, you can now get digital telly from BT in the form of BT Vision, and those Home Hubs are slowly invading homes across the UK. Now, BT has teamed up with a major credit card partner to invade your wallet too.

Powered by MBNA, the BT Credit Card is a standard Visa card that rewards you for making your everyday purchases on the card. BT will cut 1p off home phone or BT broadband bills for every £1.50 that you spend on the card. There are better cashback offers out there if you look for them, but for convenience, BT's Visa Card is a great way of saving some cash without much effort or hassle.

If you get your phone or Broadband from BT, this is worth looking at, but you have to be in a position to pay off your balance in full each month, otherwise the interest you pay will exceed the money you save off your bill.

At launch, the card offered 12 months 0% balance transfers - for details of the current offers, go to www.bt.com/creditcard.

Our view? If you get your phone or broadband from BT, and typically pay off your credit cards in full - this is certainly worth going for.

Nothing to lose, and well worth considering.
