Got some checks from them yesterday that I can use to pay bills.
The kicker:
Now I can pay my bills with checks that have a low APR of 20.99%. Thats what I think it said. They considered this to be low 20.99%

Yeah, that's a good one.......And I'm guessing they would be considered a "cash advance" so interest would start accumulating immediately......

They sent me a check with the card they issued me. I quickly tore it up and threw it away.

Don't forget the low 4% cash advance fee ![]()

Shudder to think all the card holders who may not quantify the real cost in advance and use the checks for the convenience factor.

Barclays sent me checks last week that had a 5.99 apr for 6 months on home improvement. Its good through October 1. I went to Lowes and bought a new sliding door. Other wise it would have been 22.99 apr..

LOL! That reminds me of the checks Capital One sends me to do a balance transfer from my high APR cards when theirs is the highest I have!
