How will your change in credit card interest rates impact you?

 

September 1, 2011

If you happen to miss a payment on your credit card or any other loan it may impact your credit card interest rate. If you owe about $1,000 at 11% interest it will take you 73 months (6 years) to pay it off and $320 in interest. but when your credit card company increases your interest rate due to a late payment, even if the late payment is not that credit card, they can increase your rate to a penalty rate. Let's say that rate is 19.9% (some states allow up to 29.9%). It will now take you 100 months to pay off your balance (8.3 years) and $860 in interest.

It pays to pay your minimum payments on time.

It has been just over a month since the new Federal credit score disclosure law went into effect. Lending institutions have already found loopholes to keep from disclosing your credit score when you are denied credit, loan, or if you received less desirable terms because of your score. According to SmartMoney.com there are time you may not get a credit score. These are usually when banks use their own in-house credit scoring system. There are other ways to get your credit score that will not impact your credit rating by going to MyFICO.com  Click here for more information.
