Hi,
I have a closed Amex that is being paid off by a debt management program. The rate on the card is low because of the program, but the monthly fee i have to pay ($65) is not making this a viable option anymore as I've paid off a couple cards.
I was thinking of opening a Chase Slate account to do a balance transfer and pay off the card myself. Unfortunately, the bank says I cannot balance transfer from the closed account and Chase Slate does not offer any checks.
Does anyone know of a bank that offers a 0% intro rate that will also provide me a check to pay the debt program to pay off the Amex? I'm much better with my money and want to pay this off quicker.
I may be mistaken, however, obtaining a CC in a DMP may result in being kicked out of the DMP. I would verify you can obtain new credit while in the DMP. Likewise, I have heard that you will have a hard time (if any chance) in obtaining credit while TLs on your CR are showing being part of a DMP. YMMV of course.
Yeah - I am aware of that. I was able to get a Discover It card and haven't had any issues with the DMP. I do know that I don't have a lot of options in obtaining CR in a new card, but Discover gave me $5k. The Chase Slate is a very similar card so I'm thinking of taking the risk of applying as I want to limit which card I apply for.
