Currys interest free Macbook ?

[i4got]

Anyone looked at the 0% credit deals on Macbook Air at Curry's. Digging into it, it seems impossible to achieve. Any route you take it will add credit at around 25%. I'd consider myself reasonably finance savvy but this seems extremely misleading.



And here is the link under "More Info"

Anyone know how and whether it's possible to get zero percent?

I'd walk into a store and ask them failing that there's the video/chat option as well, may just be a glitch on the website.

I read it as you take out their "flexible finance" (like a store card really) and get that purchase at 0% but the account itself and any subsequent purchases are at 24.9%.

You can get interest free direct from apple if you want to go that way.

We currently have a macbook air on 1 year interest free. It's provided by barclays.

Got it.

You select a one off payment not the flexible payment plan.

Then when you go through all the steps and reach the payment stage it offers you 24 months interest free payments as an alternative.

As mentioned above it also sets up a credit account (not interest free) for future purchases but you don't need to use that

I suppose the issue with that is buying direct from Apple is £100 more than you can buy it from places like Currys/Amazon/John Lewis.

I did look at the apple site but couldn't see any current interest free offers.
