Post subject: 0% BT offerings


Hello. Will need another 0% BT in a few months. Who is offering 0% BT's these days?

All my offerings in the mail are coming from Citizen Bank, HSBC and Washington Mutual. Chase loves me apparently but Ive used all my Chase offerings and cant transfer back to Chase. Washington Mutual got better on the last offering with 0% for BT + Purchases with a $75 fee. Used to be a worse deal.

Before I reallocated my credit, I was getting WORSE offerings that were from small fry horrendous companies, I had perfect credit but my limits had to be adjusted. Then all of a sudden I got hit with really sweet chase deals so I grabbed them. Since then its been the same Citizen, HSBC and Washington Mutual trying for my business. Seems like the other players don't seem to be in the competitive mode for my account, I wonder why.

GE website says 3% FEE. Did you receive preapproved offer or did you apply?

Bank of America has been sending me the same pre-approved offer of 0% APR for a year on bts AND purchases with no balance transfer fee for several weeks now.

I'm tempted, but I just signed up for WAMU-ESPN until Jan., 2008. WAMU only allowed BTs in the first 90 days on this offer and that's it! So I'm pretty much staying put with this one for balance transfers and may take out the BOA for purchases only. I only had one bt expiring so fee wasn't a big issue. 2008 was what caught my eye, of course!

Oh, there was a 3% fee on this WAMU bt. Wish I had received the BOA first though
