Comments on: Really? A credit card co. that wants to help you get out of debt http://sensetosave.com/2008/05/29/discover-card-paydown-planner/ Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:16:20 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: (army)wife http://sensetosave.com/2008/05/29/discover-card-paydown-planner/comment-page-1/#comment-13352 (army)wife Thu, 17 Jul 2008 18:31:32 +0000 http://sensetosave.com/?p=897#comment-13352 I use Discover and they are one of the best cards I have. I started using Discover for my wedding, so I racked up quite a balance. They have been nothing but helpful from day one. The interest rate is ridiculously low (even after I missed a due date after about 6 months of using the card) and their website is one of the easist to navigate. I use the paydown planner and I think its great! Maybe there is an ulterior motive behind it, but for now its helping me pay off my bill in 1 year and I can't argue with that.

I have had my credit card number stolen and they fixed the issue right away. I will continue to be a big fan of discover and this is just another reason I will continue being a customer.

People who carry a small balance they <em>could</em> pay off at any point are probably more likely to go with what works. And they'll pay thousands in interest over the years.

I pay off the card every time my husband gets a paycheck. We use only one card so its easy to keep track of. I don't worry about getting wrong change (haven't gotten back $5 - $10 numerous times) and it streamlines the process for me. So for our family one cc paid off every month has worked out beautifully. This month we got $150 back because we just moved into a new house and had abnormal spending. Others prefer debit card but I have had such personally horrific problems with them I only use it where they won't take credit. I don’t use discover but I’ve never had a credit card balance.
