Halifax revamps All in One credit card


Updated on 03 September 2015 | 0 Comments

Interest-free balance transfers and purchases boosted, while fees have been cut. But how does the new deal stack up?

Halifax has overhauled its All in One credit card.

The deal now offers 24 months interest free on purchases as well as 24 months of 0% interest on balance transfers.

In addition, the fee on balance transfers made within the first 90 days has been cut to 0.8%.

But is the new and improved Halifax card worth going for?

How it compares on balance transfers

The changes to the All in One balance transfer offer mean it’s now one of the best cheap balance transfers on the market.

It usurps Barclaycard’s 24-Month Platinum credit card which offers two years 0% on balance transfers with a 0.99% fee.
