When you receive credit card offers in the mail, examine the fine print
before you accept any offer. Review the following items very carefully.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) - determine if it varies, how
the variation is determined and when can it change.
Period Rate - This is the interest rate used to figure the
finance charge on your balance.
Annual Fee - Amount you pay to be a cardholder. All cards do
not charge an annual fee.
Grace period - This is the number of days you have to pay
your bill before finance charges begin to accrue.
Finance charges - Most lenders calculate finance charges
using an average daily account balance. Look for offers that use an adjustable
balance which subtracts your payment from your beginning balance.
Other fees - Ask about special fees when you get a cash
advance, make a late payment or go over your credit limit.
| The Fair Credit and Charge Card Disclosure Act requires
credit and charge card issuers to include this information on credit
applications.
BEWARE OF
Teaser Rates - these types of rates are low for a short period of time
and then escalate to a higher rate on the balance. Sometimes one late payment
could cancel the teaser rate.
Offer to skip a credit payment - If your credit card company
invites you to skip a payment without penalty, you may still owe finance charges
on your unpaid balance and the interest will probably be adding upon purchases
you made after the due date you skipped.
Be thorough in your examination of all credit card offers, it could save you
hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

Obtaining a Free Credit Report |

Question |
| |
Obtaining a Free Credit Report |
 |
| |
Answer |
| |
Normally, the four major Credit Reporting Agencies (CRAs)
may charge you up to $9.50 for a copy of your credit report. However, an
amendment to the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires each of the CRAs to provide
you with a free copy of your credit report once every 12 months. Details on
ordering are accessible through the
Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
You may also request a free copy of your credit report if a company takes
adverse action against you, such as denying your application for credit,
insurance or employment. You must request your report within 60 days of
receiving notice of the action. The notice will give you the name, address, and
telephone number of the CRA that provided the negative information. The four
major CRAs are
Equifax,
Experian,
Innovis and
TransUnion.
You may also be entitled to one free credit report a year if you certify in
writing that:
Even if you have not been denied credit, you may want to find out what
information is in your credit report. Some financial advisors suggest that you
review your credit report periodically for inaccuracies or omissions. This could
be especially important if you are considering a major purchase, such as buying
a home or a car.
