I'm always looking for a good balance transfer deal - even now that all of my rates are fairly low. I called up National City to see if they had any deals going on. They offered my 3.99% APR for six months with no fee. I'm taking $3500 from Citi Card over to National City. Here's why:
Citi Card
- Balance: $3500
- Credit Limit: $4400
- APR for 6 months: 6.99%
- Estimated interest for 6 months: $112
- Initial Credit Utilization: 80%
- Balance: $3500
- Credit Limit: $8250
- APR for 6 months: 3.99%
- Estimated interest for 6 months: $63
- Initial Credit Utilization: 42%
Now its time to knock out my PTP loans!
Debt snowball target: Prosper @ 14.94%

Good for you, that's what this website is all about :)
just curious, why did you not just open a new card with a 0% promo rate?
@ Dan - Mainly because I've already done that... a few times. I have something like 5 new accounts in the past year. I'm interested in saving money on finance charges, but I really need to give my credit score a break!
