Marks and Spencer Credit Card Balance Transfer

The M&S balance transfer credit cards, are issued as Mastercard cards. The M&S credit cards can be applied for by customers who are UK residents and aged 18 or over. Customers applying for a M and S balance transfer card also need to have an annual income, or pension, of at least £6,800.

The Marks and Spencer balance transfer cards offer customers preferential rates when you use your M&S balance transfer card to order M&S travel money. There is also no cash advance fee charged when using the card for travel money purchases at M&S travel bureau.

The Marks and Spencer balance transfer credit card is a popular credit card within the UK market. The card is promoted by Marks & Spencer to new and existing customers, both on the high street and also online.

M and S Balance Transfer For Existing Customers

M&S Bank is run as a joint venture arrangement between Marks & Spencer and HSBC Bank. This means that the M and S balance transfer credit cards are issued by HSBC bank.

As a result, balance transfers can not be made to the Marks and Spencer balance transfer cards from any other HSBC balance transfer card. These include the First Direct credit cards, as well as the John Lewis and Waitrose Partnership credit card.

The Marks and Spencer balance transfer offers from M&S Bank were increased in length in March 2021. The bank had previously offered shorter 0% introductory offers to new customers. The Transfer Plus card had previously offered 0% for 25 months on balance transfers for new customers. The Shopping Plus card had previously offered 0% 16 months on balance transfers.

These reductions followed the many other credit card companies which had also reduced the length of their 0% introductory offers. This was largely, as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.

M&S Bank Balance Transfer

In addition to the above M&S balance transfer offer, the M&S Bank balance transfer credit cards offer customers M&S points on purchases. Every time you shop with your Marks and Spencer credit card in both Marks and Spencer and elsewhere on the high street, or online you collect M&S points. Customers receive 1 point for every £1 spent in M&S and one point for every £5 spent elsewhere.

The M&S Rewards Plus credit card offers customers double M&S points on all your M&S shopping using the card. This applies for your first 12 months from account opening.

M&S points are converted into M&S reward vouchers four times a year. These reward vouchers are then posted directly to the customer. The reward vouchers can be used either in the M&S high street stores, or online.

The M&S Bank balance transfer cards have, in past years, been seen as more of a rewards credit card, than a long balance transfer credit card. However, the current Marks and Spencer balance transfer offers are now some of the most competitive in the UK credit card market.
