ranku_mogudu Posted December 27, 2017 Report Posted December 27, 2017 I have around 15K USD in credit cards maxed up and their APR is increased to 19 and 22% . It takes me more than 2-3 years to clear but doesnt have that time. Any ideas or suggestions to consolidate them sooner and at lesser interest rates? Quote

Maxed up and interest rate kuda perigindi ante ni credit score chala padipoyi untundi. Koncham time tiskunna oka 4-5 months lo atleast 10k ala payoff cheyyi so that score perugutundi then apply for a new credit card with 0% APR and use it. But pay off the rest of them by paying minimum payments for the new card. Quote

mummadi Posted December 28, 2017 Report Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) Look for new credit cards with 0% interest on balance transfers and with no fee. Not just apr 0% https://www.frugaltravelguy.com/2017/12/balance-transfer-cards-to-pay-down-your-holiday-shopping-bill.html Edited December 28, 2017 by mummadi Quote

And at this stage, if anyone goes for personal loan, the APR will not be less than 20%. However, it is still a better option to pay 20% APR on personal loan than 19-22% on Credit cards. Chances to get credit card will also be very low at this situation. Only way is to raise funds on your own and be responsible going further. Quote
