Re: Help on New Card

Discover It and the Amex BCE will have 0% interest for 12 months. The BCE will also have $100 bonus.

 

You could look into the Citi Diamond Preferred as well for 18 months of 0% interest.

Cap one for newcomers
Discover IT for rewards and 0% promo
Walmart for free TU and GE CLI

None of these really have a low int rate (Discover has the promo if you qualify) but its not a bad line up. If you keep your balances low or PIF the APR won't be a factor.

Are you a member of a CU?

Re: Help on New Card

Citi is really an iffy suggestion. I would have said Citi Simplicity or Diamond but their recon is not good at all. You don't have a lot if inq's so one will not hurt if you decide and they decline you.

I'm going to second the last bit of Lexie's post.

 

A good CU will generally give you a larger CL and lower interest than a CC from a bank.

Re: Help on New Card

CUs have always been a better source for cc's - lower rates and usually higher CL. I would start there.
