8 Would you pay to apply for a credit card?

9 What?! You’re going to penalize me for missing a payment to some other credit card?! Thankfully, this was outlawed in the new credit card legislation.

10 Recently, the solicitations have been far more advantageous to the consumers (at least the ones I have been receiving). The competition must be getting stiffer for good suckers, uh, I mean good customers!

11 How are they making their money with the 0% balance transfer interest rate offers? They are charging you an upfront fee of 4% on the balance transfers. Several years ago, they did not charge this fee. This allowed many people to borrow the money at 0% and then get 3% in a CD. Of course, CDs are paying almost nothing now so this strategy no longer works.

12 Now, here is a pretty darned good offer. 0% for purchases for the first year plus enough “bonus points” to get a free airline ticket once you make $500 worth of purchases within 90 days. Is this enough of an incentive to acquire and use the card? You have to decide. But remember, the credit card companies are hoping that you will not pay off the balance within 1 year. If you don’t, KA- CHING!
