With money.


 

Haha, dangit you beat me to it.

 

I do all payments manually.  I alternate leaving a balance between two of my cards but all else is PIF.

Re: How Do You Pay Your Credit Card?

Multiple payments before the due date and before the statement cuts. I have low limits on my cards so I kinda have to do it this way so my util won't be (too) high. I pay everything manually though online and have reminders on my iPad (I use the Bills for IPad for the reminders and calendar feature) so I can keep up with due dates. I PIF all cards.


Starting Score: No credit history in July 2013, 663 in August (lender pulled)
Current Score: 773 (Discover FICO), 749 (DCU EQ)
Ultimate goal: Buy a house in 2016!

Re: How Do You Pay Your Credit Card?

I push all my bills (even non-credit cards) through Citibanks Bill Pay.... My Citi Cards (SD'd for now) I can pay by just transferring money from my Checking to the cards themselves.... I also Pay my PNC Points (only used for OD protection, so I barely ever use it) by transferring from my Virtual Wallet Spend account to the CC. 

 

Bill Pay is sooo hassle free, I love it... And its simpler and gives more control than Auto-Paying, or going to each Creditors site and pulling payments. I check my Checking Accounts everyday, so I never miss a bill due. Plus Citi and each of my billers will email me when a new Bill is ready.

I sit down on the first of each month and pay them all from my checking account via the CC company website.  I generally have one I carry a balance on and PIF for the rest.

Re: How Do You Pay Your Credit Card?

Mine are set to autopay the statement balance on the due date.  I skim the charges for the month after I get the statement ready email.

 

Even if you plan to manually pay your cards each month, it was suggested to me to at least have an autopay set up to pay the minumum balance just in case something happened and I forgot to pay.
