Comment on Balance Transfer Credit Card Rules by Jill

Jill — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:07:01 +0000

Will the new 'adverse order of payments' rules for credit card companies apply to existing customers?
I currently have a balance transfer and the credit card company make me pay off the balance transfer sum first leaving all my purchases sitting at a higher interest rate until the balance transfer is paid off. Will the new laws apply to me? Will I now see my purchases paid off first?

You should be getting your card in 7-10 days with all the small print. when you get it, you need to activate it and than it is ready to use.

the card USUALLY comes with the account info and all you do is call the number from the sticker thats on the card and they activate you.

also remember since its your first card
"buy now pay later"
the "pay" part is VERY important

You should receive your card in about 5 days. The only reason they say 10 days is if by some chance something bad happens and there is a delay. Once you get your card make sure to first sign the back thus making it valid. You will be provided a number to call and will most likely be walked through an automated system to activate your card and set up a pin number so you can use your card at ATMs. Also, please don’t, as some might suggest, be afraid to use your card. You need to use credit in order to build credit. I am now 23 and have had credit cards for 5 years. I use them frequently and always make the payments on time. I have a very high credit score as a result and am in great position to get loans for the condo I am looking to buy. There is no reason to even open an account if you are just going to sit on it and not use it. Make small purchases to start such as gas and food. Then make sure to always make your payment (even if you can only afford the minimum monthly) on time and your credit will be in great shape. Best of luck to you!

Your card should come in the mail soon, and then you will activate it through the phone. It will then be ready to use.
But do yourself a favor, and don’t use it. If you need to, be sure to pay it off at the end of the month. A lot of students get in trouble with their first credit card because they don’t budget right or can’t control their impulses and it causes their credit serious harm.

You may recieve your account information in that time frame, and then in another few days you may get your card. if they didn’t specifically say "Your card should come in 7-10 days", it may JUST be your account info.

And did you apply online/on the phone/on paper? Because that makes a difference as well.

Did you apply online?

Once the application is approved it generally takes less than two weeks for the card to show up.

Paper applications that you mail in seem to take at least a month.

I applied for my first credit card, was approved, will recieve “account information” in 7-10 days. Is that it?
What I’m asking is whether or not I will recieve my card, ready to use in 7-10 days, or is there other paperwork I’ll have to fill out? It’s a visa student rewards card if that means anything here.

Comment on Bad Credit Loans: for Your Financial Requirements by Mai

n this economy, people with good credit can barely get a loan. People with bad credit are SOL. It’s people with bad credit which banks gave out loans that they knew might not get paid back, which got us into this mess.
Wait till the credit market thaws, then try.
