Our advice on credit card balance transfer

We remind you: travel should not be done through debt. However, if you’re paying high interest charges on a credit card balance every month, don’t hesitate to take advantage of a credit card balance transfer offer like this one with the MBNA True Line® Mastercard® credit card.

Then plan a strategy to pay off your credit card debt:

  • Do not make any new purchases on this new credit card: gradually pay down the credit card balance you have transferred by setting yourself a timetable, ideally for the next 6 months.
  • Use your old credit card for all your day-to-day expenses and pay it in full each month, without leaving a balance behind as you may have done in the past.
  • If you can’t manage it, make an appointment with your bank advisor to set up a more solid strategy (with a mortgage line of credit, for example, or a personal loan whose rate will often be much lower (4 to 5% instead of the 12 to 20% of credit card interest rates).
