General Discussion>Low interest rate credit cards
BORIStheBLADE 06:58 PM 04-07-2009
So B of A sent me a letter saying in May they are raising rates on my card 4%. :-)So my CC with be 12%. After they yanked my line of credit out from under my feet I feel like venturing out to find a CC that has maybe at the most the same rate I'm getting. I have excellent credit and dont have issues getting CC's.
I usually pay my bill in full and sometimes leave a couple of hundred on it but don't care for this crap.

Anyone seen any good rates lately? Not the one year 0% but indefinite?


thanks

Try a local credit union if you qualify, got a good rate on mine through one :-)

Chase has some good cards, but honestly if you pay your bill the way you describe, the % shouldn't matter. I would be looking for cards that offer more for me, like useful rewards or cash back.


Chase, however, has some good ones that run something like 2.99% + prime, so you're looking at sub-7% interest, but no rewards.

Ya I agree, but if I need to spend some money on an emergency and I can't pay it all I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for leaving a balance. I'll check out chase.

American Express is the best bet if you pay it off every month.
