As a responsible lender, we only want you to borrow what you can afford and to do so in a way that is best for you. If you’d like to talk to us about the choices you’ve made or would like advice we will be happy to refer you to a member of staff who may be able to help.

* Minimum spend of £100 in the first 3 months applies. Minimum balance transfer is £100 and is subject to your credit limit. Balances must be transferred within 6 weeks of opening the account.  Your monthly payments reduce balance transfers first, so after six months you pay interest on purchases at the standard rate until balance transfers are paid off.  3% fee applies and interest is charged on this fee.

Terms and conditions apply to all Lloyds TSB credit cards benefits. Full details will be sent with your card. After each introductory period ends, you will be charged at the appropriate standard rate.

Calls may be monitored and recorded in case we need to check we have carried out your instructions correctly and to help us improve our quality of service.
