Barclaycard are well remembered for their choice of well known comedy actors to put across the features of their credit card range and the introduction of their Flexi Rate Credit Card is no exception.
Historical campaigns have seen Rowan Atkinson as a hapless MI6 agent and more recently Jennifer Saunders on her travels, both demonstrating the insurance protection available for goods and services paid for with a Barclaycard.
The latest campaign sees actors Julian Rhind-Tutt and Stephen Mangan, best known for their roles in the recent Channel 4 comedy show, Green Wing cruising across America in a convertible with humerous consequences.
The start of this campaign is to mark the introduction of the Barclaycard Flexi Rate credit card’s change in balance transfer offer and 2% reduction of the typical interest rate. The change will enable cardholders to reduce borrowing costs on other cards by switching.
The Barclaycard Flexi Rate Credit Card already offers a pioneering feature that lowers the interest rate of an outstanding balance depending on the amount paid each month. Customers that pay over 10% each month will pay only 9.9%, people paying back more than 5% will pay 12.9% whereas people only paying back the minimum 2.25% will pay 14.9%.
This could equate to significant savings and Barclaycard believe that the offer will encourage more people to pay off more than 10% each month to take advantage of the lower rate and reduce the time take to clear the outstanding balance.
