in Credit cards
Hello All,
I have a Capital One credit card, and yesterday I received a letter from them telling me that they will be increasing the standard interest rates in my agreement to 18.44% pa.
After searching the credit card part of this site, the general rule seems to be, yes transfer your balance, but do not use your new card as the interest will be high.
Can someone recommend a credit card that I can transfer my Capital One balance to, but still use the new card as i normally would?

Thanks Innocent_Guy,
I should imagine that Capital One will charge me a fee as well?0
