Low Interest UK Credit Card --
Detailed Review of Capital One No Hassle Platinum MasterCard



Summary
Good for lowest interest rates. The Capital One Platinum MasterCard has a 0% introductory interest rate for 6 months. The standard 10.9% variable APR is among the industry's lowest. Their 3.9% rate for the life of any balance transfer, while an attractive rate, would not make this card the top choice for transferring a large balance from another credit card. But, if you plan to carry a balance from purchases from month to month, this is the among best standard interest rates of any of the popular UK credit cards.
We recommend this card for those with good credit and who wish to enjoy one of the lowest interest rates available for purchases. While Capital One's interest rate for balance transfers is not the best, the interest on a small balance transfer-- which one would pay off as soon as possible-- is not a significant issue.
