Unfortunately, from other posts on here, it seems they’re stuck on 17.99% for 800-818 scores. I think there was a 838 for a lower APR but I’ve had a margherita so I’m not 100% sure.

Re: Apple Unveils new Apple Card

hi again This is why I think the apple card is bs thay said this card was going to have lower rate if you can't get great rate with score over 800 and no lates and good income then what kind of card is the Apple card, Tim was bs the public I may get rid of my apple. Thay are going to tern off lot good customers. I hope that Golden Sachs has recon line. Most of my cards have lower rate then what Apple is giving me. If this what Apple card is going to be for customer with fico score over 800 then it is going to hurt Apple. What wouwould do pass on this card. Just for info my Discover card has cl of 27k and my BOA mastercard has cl of 15K and both cards have intrest rate around 14 percent.

Honestly, I dont think Apple/GS are going to turn customers off because a lot of us PIF so interest rates don't matter. And to counteract that, one can always charge an expensive Apple product on the iphone for the 3% discount and then just do a BT to a 0% APR card if they need time to pay it off.

Some friendly (seriously!) advice: Take a few deep breaths and step away from the screen.  There are better things to get passionate about than a credit card in which you don't personally see value.

 

For folks looking for 0% APR introductory periods ... this card isn't for them.  For folks looking to maximize travel rewards ... this card isn't for them.   For folks looking to maximize category cash back ... this card isn't for them.   For folks looking for tight Apple integration and some novel approaches to consumer credit, the Apple Card is for them.  It's ok that you are going to pass on it;  but it doesn't make it "Bs".

Cards that charge no fees always have high APRs. I mean this card doesn’t even have a late fee. If you don’t want to be charged interest, don’t carry a balance. 

 

Nobody has been misled. In fact, the simple fact you can check your terms before you take the hard pull in itself is something nobody else does. Once you submit any other credit card application, you’re going to be approved or denied regardless of the terms they offer you. Apple shows you your limit and APR and gives you the option to accept or decline. 

 

Who knows, maybe those of us who decline the offer will get the pot sweetened as we check back every month or so?

 

As for the BT Card, NFCU Platinum.

Re: Apple Unveils new Apple Card

We are all passionate about credit and credit cards we spend time on Fico credit board talking about credit and all things to do with credit. I don't like false advertising ther rule about false advertising. When Apple announce this card back in March they said the interest rate would be lowest among all the credit cards on market, 13.5 24 percent depending on your credit standing. With credit scores around 800 and no lates and no marks on credit reports, then I should got an interest rate at lower end. Ther are other credit companys out that give pre approval with a hard pull such as Capital One. I can talk about the credit card that apple is putting out. Just my opinion about the apple card.

You keep asking Apple out on a date but clearly they are not in to you. Earlier in the thread you expressed interest in a card with 0% rate and no balance transfer fees. Might I suggest BECU.

They have two cards. Both 0% for 12 months and no balance transfer fees. One has 1.5% cash back and the other has 9% on going APR.
