why APR is an issue when you can pay in full?

 

a no annual fee card to build you credit history is not a bad deal.

 

do they give 25 days grace period as most of the card here?


a) Because sometimes you may not be apple to pay in full and b) there are other better cards, just as there are here.

 

59.9% is only an example BTW, the T&Cs list:

 

The interest rates applicable to the credit agreement will be from one of Tiers A) - H) below:
Tier A) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 19.94%, Cheque annual rate 29.93%, Cash annual rate 37.57%; or
Tier B1) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 29.84%, Cheque annual rate 39.94%, Cash annual rate 48.26%; or
Tier B2) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 29.95%, Cheque annual rate 39.94%, Cash annual rate 48.26%; or
Tier C) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 34.95%, Cheque annual rate 44.95%, Cash annual rate 53.63%; or
Tier D1) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 39.84%, Cheque annual rate 49.94%, Cash annual rate 58.95%; or
Tier D2) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 39.94%, Cheque annual rate 49.94%, Cash annual rate 58.95%; or
Tier E) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 49.94%, Cheque annual rate 59.94%, Cash annual rate 69.67%; or
Tier F) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 59.94%, Cheque annual rate 69.94%, Cash annual rate 80.38%; or
Tier G) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 69.94%, Cheque annual rate 79.93%, Cash annual rate 91.12%; or
Tier H) Purchase/Balance Transfer annual rate 79.93%, Cheque annual rate 88.23%, Cash annual rate 99.99%.

 

So from 19.9 to 79.93.  Quite a range.

Sadly for the OP, like all UK cards, this is only available to residents of the UK.   Still, worth relocating for an offer like that!


I would not relocate. Unless I was guaranteed an offer from Tiers G or H. 

LOL

Before joining this Forum I got an offer from Green Dot Financial for a unsecured personal loan...... For the BARGAIN APR of 899.something%...  But they were illustrating the HUNDEREDS they were going to save me over a 3000-something% payday loan.  And I would have more time to pay with flexible terms!!!  Never in my life have I ever had a payday loan or pay advance.  Even when I had been laid-off for over a year (we could have taken a payday loan against my ex's retirement income).

 

I couldn't WAIT to accept their offer...... NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NFCU nCashRewards VISA - $20,000 | NFCU nRewards $10,000
AMEX Costco TrueEarnings $5,000 | AMEX Delta Gold $1,500
Chase SWA VISA $5,000 | Chase Slate $3,500 | Chase Amazon Rewards VISA $3,000
