Most people over 55 with good credit were never told why that bite keeps happening. It is not because there is no other option.<\/h3>\n

A person over 55 who kept the accounts clean is exactly who card issuers want. Good to excellent credit in that age group is the strongest of any age. That is the customer the other side fights to win.<\/h3>\n

The banks will compete for your credit.<\/h3>\n

They stay on the card that is already charging above 21%, and the bank keeps the gap.<\/h3>\n

Here is what a balance transfer means in plain English: You apply for a card that offers 0% intro APR on balances moved over. Once approved, you move the old balance for a one-time fee, usually 3% to 5% of the amount.<\/h3>\n

For the length of the intro window, every dollar of the payment goes to the balance itself, not to interest. That\u2019s how you stop the hurt.<\/h3>\n

These cards are for people with good to excellent credit who will use the window to pay the balance down. They are not a fit for people with serious recent credit damage, or if the plan is to run up new debt on the freed-up card.<\/h3>\n

On the next page are the card names, the length of each 0% period, the transfer fees, and a secure application for each. Comparing takes about two minutes.<\/h3>\n
