I thought Ring is 8% variable?

The ring is variable. 

 

The current prime rate is 3.25%, so the ring is the prime rate +4.75%


Plus no balance transfer fee.


And a 1$ cash advance fee. Fantastic for emergencies. Though I carry around my walmart card in case I ever need cash. There's walmarts everywhere Smiley Tongue 


Welll $1 plus the 8% correct if you were to carry a balance on the cash advance?


Yes. But 8% is pretty low Smiley Tongue and in an emergency I'd say its a far better option than a ridiculous BT fee ontop of a ridiculous APR.

Ya honestly I didn't know it has 1$ cash advance fee and 8% fixed...  That is pretty damn nice if ever needed...Those are some nice benefits.

Everyone should have a Ring in their portfolio. By this time next year I plan to have it be my only Barclays card and with a fat 5 digit limit. Nice solid card to have with great features. Smiley Wink

No, it's not fixed - it is a variable rate (check your T&C).  My APR is 8.9% (variable) due to BofA/FIA/Merrill relationship.  The days of fixed rates for most CC products have gone out the window since the Credit Card Act reform from 2009.  Most CCs are under variable APRs.

I have a 9.9% B of A cc that was and has been fixed for the past 14 years.  Are there any other fixed rate cards out there?

 

What fixed rate cards do you have?


I also have a fixed rate BoA card at 9.99%, have had since 2007.  It is the last remaining, open fixed-rate card I have...  *wistful sigh, missing the days of when fixed-rate cards were more prevalent*

Re: Fixed Rate Credit Cards

Look to CUs for fixed rate cards, at a bank you can pretty much forget it.
