I mentioned about choosing the right credit card in my last post, now I would like to talk about credit card consolidation or restructure.

It all happens when I received an email from a friend about RMCN credit service that she engaged months ago.

Subject: I improve my credit rating

July 30, 2009

First of all let me say that I am ECSTATIC about my credit repair progress. Vicky has been great ALL THE WAY, extremely efficient in all her efforts. I starting working with RMCN around May 11th, 2009 and just received my second credit score update today, overall between all 3 credit bureaus I have increased my score 86 points………………………………………………………………..

All the while I have been very conscious with my spending especially credit card, so I do not have much problem with my credit card payment nor it affect my credit rating.  But after received the above email, I understand that a lot of people are in debts with credit because it is the most convenient way to spend money that you do not own, just a swipe with a signature and you are done, the problem will come at the end of the months when the payment due.

If you are having problem with your credit card payment and that’s affecting your credit score, you might want to have a look at various option that may help you to get back your good credit scoring so that you will not be penalized with higher interest rate in the future.  You may get more information at www.repairmycreditnow.com on how to get back your credit scoring.

I received an invitation letter from a local bank offering me a “FREE” credit card. The credit card offer me interest free period up to 45 days, which is about 20 days more than a current credit card. Best of all, it is free, no annual charges at all.

It looks tempting to me as my current credit card charge me annual fees, even though I do not need to pay for it as my annual usage allowed me to waive the annual fees automatically.

Beside considering the free annual charges and longer interest free period, which does not sound attractive to me as both does not benefiting me, I am looking for more before I take up the offer.

I look through the offer letter and I notice that it did not mention about the amount that I need to responsible should I lost my card and report it within 24 hours. This is a grey area as credit card fraud case has been increasing daily as I do not wants to be a victim with tons of charges which I do not purchase anything at all.

I am very careful about using my credit card online, what I did was I had a credit card with maximum credit limit of $1000 specifically for Internet purchase. The is to assure that if there is any Internet credit card fraud happened case to me, my maximum lost is limit to $1000 only.
