If you fly once a year with Virgin, this card might be useful. The card is currently offering 3 different choices (see website).
Specifically, offer 2 provides benefits for anyone stoozing / repeating balance transfers.

0% for 12 months from application on all purchases.
0% for 6 months on balance transfers (up to 80% of credit limit), with no BT fee.
$129 annual fee rebated with a $129 virgin flight voucher.
Minimum credit limit of $6000 / Annual income required of $35000*

This combination effectively allows you to instantly load the card to 80% from another card that might have an offer expiring and then allow you to continue to make purchases up to the limit. Just remember to pay down all of the original Balance Transfer amount before the 6 months is reached and then continue spending up until 12 months, before rinsing and repeating the process with the next card.

    "Just remember to pay down all of the original Balance Transfer amount before the 6 months is reached and then continue spending up until 12 months"

    How do you pay down the balance transfer? Doesn't the CC just list the total amount you owe?

      You pay down whatever the amount you balance transferred initially was. Ie if you BT'd $5000 and then spent another $4000 on a 10k limit, you'd pay down 5k at the six month mark (or you could do a balance transfer to another card).

      Credit cards are obligated to apply payments to whichever component of the card will have the highest interest rate, in this case being the BT amount as its offer expires first.

      Some cards will just list as one amount, while others will show how your balance is broken up between promotional offers. Not sure about this card though.

    Another credit card that previously had a reasonable benefit that has been reduced significantly.

    This is the normal deal for this card. No bargain here.

    The 40000 bonus points deal isnt bad considering there is essentially no annual fee and low required income.

    Edit: Although minimum spend requirements may be hard to comply with.
