Re: Who has the LOWEST (Non-Intro) credit card APR? Image or it didn't happen.

My Discover card has a no-fee BT for 12-months that is 4.99%, so really all my cards could be BT to that one if necessary.

Western CU goes as low as 4.99%

I thought that Western/Unify's rate went up slightly after prime rate increased some months ago, to 5.24% V?  At least the last time I think I checked their website?


According to their reps, the website has not been updated to reflect the new starting apr of 4.99%. And that bad boy is on my wishlist for 2017. Me like! 😜


Thanks for the helpful update baller!  Smiley Happy  Also as a quick tip/FYI, IIRC when I spoke most recently to a Western/Unify Bank CSR IIRC, they mentioned that for credit score qualifications for their credit cards, they use FICO 2 Score, not FICO 8, in case that is hopefully of any help to anyone interested in their card products.

The forum poster named mister-endowed also has a Citi DC with a rate of 5.24% V, if i am hopefully recalling correctly?  I always thought that his rate was very, very impressive, especially for a 2% cashback rewards card...


You are right and i remember engaging in that thread because that was of all things a Citi Card and it IS very impressive!

I didn't know that. Thanks a bunch. Looks like I will be keeping NASA around longer than planned (monthly EX Fico 2). Haha

Isn't there a Prime card (FNBO or something) that has an AF < $100


You're thinking of the FNBO Prime For Life card, but it has an $89 annual fee.

 

Houston FCU Prime Lock only has a $50 annual fee. 

 

And no, do not apply for these cards...

Yes, < $100.       I thought some of the low APR chasers would have them, or maybe the AF puts them off (as it should!)
