Have you heard any of your friends talking or seen the adverts
on TV for 0% balance transfers credit cards? If you have and you have not yet
considered whether you would be better off by transferring your credit card
balance then you may be missing out and costing youself alot of money!
A credit card balance transfer can slash huge amounts off the total repayable
amount on your credit card borrowings. If you have a substantial balance on your
credit card or store card and assumuing the fees will not exceed the interest
savings then you would save money (and perhaps a lot of it) if you performed a
credit card balance transfer.
There are quite a few other articles on the web and this website that explain
what 0% balance transfer credit cards are however in the interest of completness
here is a quick definition.
0% balance transfer credit cards offer you a 0% interest rate for a set period
often 3, 6 , 12 or sometimes 13 months. During this time you will not pay
interest on the credit card balance, assuming you meet the credit card providers
terms and conditions. However be careful and some of the credit card providers
charge balance transfer fees, either a percentage of the balance transfer amount
or a fixed fee. Be sure to calculate the savings on our balance transfer
calculator.
