Citi Diamond Preferred Card approval !

Citi has a good offer for balance transfers  (0% APR for 21 months)!  I discovered the offer from a link on the Washington Post website.

 

After reading the offer, reading a lot of reviews on several sites and mulling things over for a day, I took my chance and app'd for the card from their website. Instant approval with a $8,000.00 CL, and a 12.24 % rate (after the 21 month 0% term ends).

 

The Citi Simplicity Card has the same balance transfer terms, but the APR is mildly higher on the lower end of the offered APR spectrum ( 13.24% -vs- 12.24%).  Not the lowest rate out there, but 21 months of no interest for a balance transfer (with a 3% fee) is tough to beat!

 

 

I don't have any experience whatsoever with Citibank. Hopefully, this was a good choice for my portfolio.

Good deal. That's a nice starting limit for that card, and IMO it is always good to have a 0 interest card in one's wallet.
