Existing Apple Visa Holder question

[CS800]

I already have the apple visa card. Is there any perks for having this card as in i'm looking to buy a macbook and looking to finance it for 12 months.

Would I still be able to do the 12 months @ % using this card?

I was looking online and saw the special financing for new card holders only. Any info much appreciated. Thanks

I just had this issue.  Call Barclays and tell them you want to purchase Apple product.  they will give you latest deal.  0% for x amount of months.

the key is to call them before you shop

I just called them and the lady said to do the purchase first then call them and they will apply a 12 month at 0%.

Not bad at all.

Sounds like it worked for you.

i made a mistake, and didn't know the terms before I purchased.  I received the card a few months ago.  I applied because I knew I wanted new iPad for myself and ipad air for wife.  I made the purchase, then looked at online statement and it showed regular interest rate.  I freKed out.  The person said that it only automatically gives 0% for new cards.  But they can override purchases or get pre approved.  They out paperwork in to get my rate changed.

its nice to know that the card can be used like to at in the future.  Once I pay off the iPads I want a new iMac.

To confirm, I called Barclay after the purchase and they did give me a 0% for 12 months on the $1400 MacBook Pro

Thanks for the followup.

Once I pay off my two ipads, I plan on buying a new iMac.
