Just to let you know, I just received in the mail an offer from Capital One.
7.9% APR fixed on balance transfers for the whole term of the balance. Not
just 6 months or so, until the balance is paid off. This is a platinum Visa
card offer based on a person's financial performance.

Per your site, just thought I'd "share" this with you.

Julie, did you find out if this is true. I thought when I
transferred all my accounts to next that they agreed to 9.9 for life too.....haaaaaa. 16.9 so I would be very interested if your outcome. thanks Diane

Diane,

Yep, you're right - the offer is usually stated "prime plus 6.9%, or whatever" - people only hear (or read) the "6.9%" - kind of works like "up to...." and "as low as..." - folks hear what they want to hear - marketing depts count on it!
