Our Allies at Americans For Fairness In Lending Posted a Video on YouTube That is worthy of a Donation 🙂
In this video Mr. Jerry Young, and ex-bank employee, removes the barriers to understanding Bank and Credit Account Fee’s.
Jerry Young takes on:
- Assessed Penalties
- Balance Transfer Rates (as high as 18%)
- Default Rates
- Fee Payment Structures (what Fee’s are paid first)
- Purchase Rates
- What you can do if your rates and fee’s become unbearable
So how can you avoid penalty fee’s ?
Debt Warriors attacked his subject before and it’s worthy of a review:
# 1. Know the “Terms and Conditions” for Credit: With Credit Card Default rates skyrocketing what you don’t know about your Credit Cards can hurt you. For this reason, it’s important to understand what will trigger a default rate to be placed on your card.
#2. Know the ‘available balance’ for each Credit Card Account: For example, once you exceeds a certain percentage of your available balance, Creditors probably will start raising your Rates.
#3. Try to keep your “outstanding balance” way below the available balance: It’s wise to spend only 25 to 35 percent of your available balance on any credit card. It is unwise to use more than 40 percent of your total available balance.
#4 Pay at least $5 over your minimum monthly payment: Many people don’t know that they can shave off interest payments by making a regular payment of $5 to $10 dollars over the minimum monthly payment.
#6. Know which kinds of Cards you have: Are they “Rewards Cards” or regular cards. Regular Credit Cards are by far a better solution in many ways. Keep your Rewards Cards purchases to a bare minimum.
#7. Carefully budget yourself for the fee’s: Once you understand the Terms and Conditions for Bank and or Credit Fee’s you should consider including all Fee’s as expenses in your monthly budgeting.
#8. Always do Balance Transfers Responsibly: You should know that there are many tricks and traps of Balance Transfers, that your Bank and or Credit Card Company will not inform you of.
