Get setup to accept Military Star Cards!!! I don't know of anyone else, but i've got a crazy high limit on mine... I need some more parts and not have to pay much interest on.

If any vendor is interested... PM me and i'll give you the specifics to get OK'd by AAFES. They allow you to do online only sales and use AAFES cards, and they conduct the billing and provide the purchase $$ to you... If I remember right when I was looking, theres no BS visa 3% fee or anything too...

 

lol, I had to cut up my star card cause that thing got me in trouble. It was my first cc and I used the **** out of it. That would be interesting to see though.

 

I think it'd generate quite a bit more sales. Right now, I'm just using mine to buy tires every now and then.

 

Star Card FTW.......lol if they get it to work, I can slap a Buchur race motor on mine.

 

If they got it to work... I'd slap on a 37R and a Buschur 2.0

 

I think my intrest rate on my NFCU Visa is lower than it is on my StarCard.

 

Really? Wow... i've got good credit and NFCU is giving it to me. They financed my car @ a crap interest rate also.

 

You do not want to be charging on the StarCard!!! If you want a real CC and a good bank USAA you just can't beat! Forget about the StarCard!

 

Yea this is the perfect way to screw over any E-1, 2 or 3. Sure they'll give you pretty much any credit limit. Thats only because AAFES knows theyll get paid, no matter the cost to the individual making less then what he can afford.Do you know where late payment statements go? Straight to your First Seargent. I've supervised several people that had this happen to them..

 

i try to stay away from the star card, i know it would get me in trouble

 

I think it is a good idea for people that know how to take care of their credit debt, especially when you are deployed because the interest rate drops down.

 

He has a good point ^

Also it's a good way to start to build your credit.

 

Key words are "people who take care of their credit debt." Just be sure that even with a credit card with a high limit, you only spend the money you have. That'll help you stay away from digging yourself a big hole.
