Re: Credit Card Questions (Experienced Only)

Everybody's answers to my questions are looked at and greatly appreciated! Love the information, please give me as much as you guys can it's really helping me and I really understand how this whole process works. Also just to confirm Annual APR of 22.9% = Cut up into 12 months(obviously) but that cut up % is at the end of each billing statement along with anything balance you have or fees ect..

Someone please step in if I am wrong but..credit card companies usually are charging a daily interest based off your balance. So it would actually be more like APR / 365 = daily interest

Re: Credit Card Questions (Experienced Only)

Please refer to your T&Cs for how your interest is calculated. If your card has not arrived yet and you want to gather the information beforehand, I would suggest reviewing those terms online for the card in question.

Most lenders charge interest on your daily balance , if you never 'carry' a balance then you will not be charged interest.
