If you have two or more promotional offers at the same rate, we will use your payments to reduce any promotional balance with the lowest standard rate last, even if this offer ends first. This could mean that any such balance may not have been reduced by the time the standard rate applies to it. Promotional rates will no longer apply from the beginning of any statement period during which you have breached your terms and conditions.
