AMEX ED - Easy to get if you have Amex CC already.

CHASE SLATE - keep in mind the 5/24 rule.

BANKAMERICARD - Not sure if easy to get.

Re: Balance transfer search

Welcome OP

What is your UT and what is the balance you are looking to transfer? Whatever 0% APR card you get you want it to have a large enough CL. Now if your present cards are maxed out, you may have a problem no matter what your scores are.

|| AmX Cash Magnet $40.5K || NFCU CashRewards $30K || Discover IT $24.7K || Macys $24.2K || NFCU CLOC $15K || NFCU Platinum $15K || CitiCostco $12.7K || Chase FU $12.7K || Apple Card $7K || BOA CashRewards $6K

Thanks....
ATM my UT is at 38%. I'm trying to transfer the balance on my Discover IT before APR hits it which is 7K and while I'm at it my CAP1 which has a little under 1K.
Which card do you believe will offer the highest CL for a blanace transfer?

Best balance transfer cards are credit union platinum cards with no balance transfer fees.

PenFed would be a good place to start then.

Well there goes my recommendation.

 

Have you ever had an increase on your 6k Amex card?  What card is it?  Since you are newer here then I am not sure if you are aware that  Amex is well known to hand out 3x credit limit increases.  With that 6k you have now, that could turn into 18k in a matter of minutes.  Then I would apply for the Everyday card as mentioned in another post.  Even if you get a lower credit line, you can move the credit limit over from your 18k card to the Everyday.  Don't pull the trigger on this yet though.  I do like the idea of having a credit union card that you can keep forever.  Let the others respond with more recommendations.
