If you are not looking for a credit card or an increase in your credit line then it was probably a very good decision to throw away the credit card offers.
Some of the offers have probably seemed too good to be true, but keep in mind that if it looks like it is too good to be true, then it probably is. Some offers that different companies claim to offer are technically true, but it is important to read the fine print to make sure that you know exactly what you are signing. If not, you may regret it.
One of the big problems that people do not notice about these wonderful deals is that in most cases there is a time limit on the special deal. Some of them are good for six months or so, but you cannot just fire the company without some work on your part, especially if you have charges on the credit card.
Some companies will have you sign a one year contract. This prevents you from changing credit card companies before they charge you the annual fee. Make sure that you read the fine print to make sure that this will not happen to you.
One of the best ways to make sure that you choose the right credit card company for you is to go with a company that you trust. Ask friends and family about the experiences with their credit card companies. This will help you to find a credit card company that you can trust. Another idea that you can try is to go with your local bank. This way you have someone that you can ask questions to face to face.
Make sure that you are comfortable with the credit card company that you choose. Research all of your options to make sure that you are getting the best interest rate, fees, and incentives for you. Then you will have a company that you can trust.
