A new card offered by Marks and Spencer will be offering 0% on all purchases for 12 months and 0% for two years when spending between £1000 and £3000 on furniture in the store. Not bad even if the APR isn’t very competitive.
Check out the details below:
• 16.9% APR
• Enjoy 0% interest on all shopping everywhere for 12 months from date of account opening
• Earn &MORE points on every card spend to treat yourself at M&S
• Fee free balance transfers at just 3.9% p.a. for the life of the balance (transferred within 6 months of account opening)

• 0% interest for 2 years on M&S furniture purchases in store over £1,000
