Barclay Visa BT offer

I just called barclay CS because my online account was asking me to activate my card (which was open in June).  Towards the conclusion of our call, he stated that I had an offer on my account for up to a $800 BT (my CL is $1000)

 

Was this BT going to be A) an HP & B) a CLI to $1800 CL?

 

Anyone have experience in taking up their offer?  I declined because I only have less than $300 in revolving debt.

Re: Barclay Visa BT offer

It would be NO CLI.

 

no hp either.

 

just a ploy to get you into debt.

 

You need to check the terms....

APR

BT Fee

Duration....

 

If you even want to use it.
