CU Ongoing Balance Transfer Offers - PenFed / NavFed

Hi All,

 

I know NavFed Plat and PenFed Gold currently have BT offers for new accounts for the first 30 days of the account. I'm wondering how often these offers pop back up? Is it normal for them to re-appear after the first 30 days of opening an account? Obviously, we are not in normal times, but would love an answer to two questions: 1) Does this typically happen when times are normal? 2) Has anyone seen these offers re-appear in the last 60 days for an account older than 30 days?

 

Thanks!

Not sure on the Gold specifically. Periodically, PenFed does send out mailers, e-mailers for 0% BT with 3% fee offers.

I recently was approved for the Penfed gold in April did a balance transfer and couple days ago received an email for another balance transfer offer. I might just take the offer again. Also nfcu sent an email offer BT for my platform cc a week ago. Might take the offer too!

I got a PenFed Power Cash credit card in April of this year and they sent me a balance transfer offer via email this past Friday.

Penfed Promise card has an ongoing 0% fee 4.9(9?)% APR 6 month BT offer available any time.  While the Annual rate is higher than the 3% fee of the Gold, if you pay off the BT by (or before) the end of the 6 month term, your actual interest as a percent-of-balance paid will always be less than 2.5%, which beats the up-front 3% of Gold.  It's a great card for reasonably short-duration Pay Over Time purchases/balances.

I usually get offered the 12 month  4.99%  0% fee on the Promise ongoing. 

 

Been getting the 12 month 0% with 3% fee on the PCR  twice since COVID...

I don't need em but its nice to have them offered!!

Yeah to echo what @M_Smart007  said, Penfed BT has always been there for me as well. Anytime I click in the Balance Transfer it's always there though with a caveat of "On Approved Credit" which I'm assuming is based on their last SP.
