Many credit cards online today offer a variety of benefits, low
rates and so forth. REDSTONE is one of the many Credit Unions
that offer credit cards. The credit cards offered are Visa
Platinum, Visa Gold, Visa Classic, Standard MasterCard, and Gold
MasterCard. Each card provides incomparable compensation
including, low APR, credit lines extending to $30,000, NO Annual
fees, PIN numbers to prevent Identity theft, including
protection on ATM, reports for lost or stolen cards, and 100%
Protection against fraud, including NO liability charges.
The cards also include $50,000 accidental and travel coverage
worldwide, secure activation and card receipts, cash advances,
Internet fraud protection, and the cards are accepted worldwide.
The VISA GOLD and GOLD MASTERCARD offers Cash Back benefits up
to 1% on spending equally $5000 and 2% annual purchases of $5000
or more. The card provides "$250,000 travel or accidental
coverage nation wide. The Visa and Master are registered cards,
and provides cash advances and coverage for cards, including
replacement. Visa and Master Offer's automobile rental discount,
24-hour discounts on hotel stay, tours, and cruise. Included in
the package is road assistance and service. Other benefits
include one-year 'extended warranty" on purchases and "90-day
purchase assurance against damage or theft."
The Visa Platinum offers yearly statements for the purpose of
taxes and budget. Other offers include credit lines up to
$30,000, "warranty manager service - warranty registration and
extended warranty protection," and coverage for travel,
emergencies, 'pre-trip assistance," and 'lost luggage locator."
Car rental coverage is also included in the package, as well as
services for translation, and transportation.
As you can see that the cards have many rewards, however the
cards demand that the applicant is a member of the RFCU. The
fine prints state that the APR rates vary, and that the cash
back rewards have stipulations. The cash back rewards are not
'applied as a credit" and will not count as a 'payment." If the
cardholder closes his account, or else fails to make payments
then the rewards are retracted. To receive the bonuses in the
plans the cardholder must hold the card for the length of the
contact, and will start receiving cash back benefits after the
period has expired.
As you can see, it pays to shop around to look for the best
deals before applying for a major credit card. One advantage of
credit cards that offer cash advances is that the cards come in
handy when you are in trouble and need cash fast. Most cards
will charge fees for cash advances, therefore, make sure you
read the Terms & Conditions thoroughly, including any fine
prints to avoid overpaying for credit cards.
If you are already in debt, it makes sense to avoid card lenders
that are out to hurt you instead of helping you.
Many Credit Unions have credit card offers that work for people
with good credit, rather than those with bad credit. Therefore,
if you have bad credit you may want to find another source to
apply for a credit card, since many Credit Unions will often
reject individuals or families with bad credit.
High-Risk Credit Cards High-Risk Credit Cards are for people
that have severed credit. The Orchard Bank MasterCard may be a
good choice, since few companies provide reporting each month to
the credit bureaus. This means that you will build your credit
if you do not miss payments. The credit line starts at $300 to
$1500." The card providers offer free account access online,
including free bill pay, and the cards are active all over the
world. The bad deal is that the credit card providers may charge
annual fees and high interest rates.
Another type of card offered is the First Premier Bank Credit
Cards. This is a card you may want to reconsider since the Terms
& Conditions state: The bank offers a credit line starting at
$250 with pending fees on the initial statement. FEES: Annual
fees are $48, Setup Account FEES $29, "Program Fee" $95,
Participation charge $6, card fee $20. As you can see, the
initial fees can set you back, especially if you have bad
credit.
