Hi,

I noticed that you get 5000 more points if referred by someone (and they get a bit too!). If you are thinking of applying then find someone with the card or drop me a PM :)

So disappointed.......Just signed up without the referral. Should have researched.:evil:
 
I believe the options are either a referral or the current special, not both.

Half and half. Everyone I've referred gets the 0% interest for 6 months even though it's not advertised on the referral site, but is on the main. But yes, you either get the referral bonus points or the sign up special.
