Thank you to all those people who took the time to participate in our poll and we hope you find the results as interesting as us.

Of the 301 people that took part in the poll, a massive 47.2% (142) said that they thought credit card offers had got worse over the past two years.

On the flipside, 25.2% (76) said that credit card offers had improved and 10.3% (31) said the offers had stayed the same.

The percentage of people who said they didn’t know if credit card offers had improved or not over the last two years was relatively high at 17.3% (52).

I think they have definitely got worse over the last couple of years but they seem to be picking up again at the moment. The Capital One deal is probably the best one I've seen in ages because it has the same amount of 0% months for both purchases and balance transfers.

It was interesting to see that I wasn't the only one who thought they had got worse over the last two years.
