| About Balance Transfer Credit Cards |
|---|
Before you transfer your balances it is recommended to check if there are any balance transfer, or handling fees to pay. Normally the provider will charge 2-3% of the balance you plan to transfer. You may also want to check if there is a time limit that balances must be transferred by, in order to get the low interest rate. Most people prefer cards that offer low interst for so many months to those that have an end date to them as if it takes to long long to transfer your balances you could end up losing out on the low interest period. If want to keep the 0% interest offers then maybe a card that offers you a low rate for the life of your balance would suit you. |
