Long-term readers of PFBlog knows I have been taking advantage of credit card companies for years. Especially, I'm very good at 0% APR arbitrage, whereby I sign up for new credit cards with attached introductory 0% APR balance transfer offer, move the entire balance immediately to my bank account, and enjoy the high saving account rates of 5% or more while remitting only the monthly minimal payment back to the credit card company. Of course, this strategy will drag down your credit score. Last summer, especially, I applied five cards in two months' time, and my credit score tanked from 720s to 640s, and I was essentially denied new credit application after being seen a credit risk by most banks. But credit score is only of cosmetic value if you don't need credit any time soon. To me, after all, I have no better use of my credit score now that I'm sitting on a portfolio of over $800k and has no plan to buy a property any time soon. The below chart is a great summary of what happened in the last dozen months: READ FULL POST ...

Credit card holders can only look on as credit card giants Capital One and ABN Amro India (currently being purchased by HSBC from The Royal Bank of Scotland) recently announced interest rate increases, of up to 7% for some existing customers. Capital One's increases will come into effect after customers receive their March statements, continuing a trend in APR increases from most major credit card issuers both in the UK and globally. A tightening consumer credit market is not only making it harder for consumers to repay their credit card debt - just being approved for a credit card is now becoming a privilege for reducing numbers of consumers able to meet increasingly restrictive credit criteria.
