Take Financial Control This Summer at PenFed on Low-Rate Credit Card Balance Transfers for Life of the Balance and No Transfer Fees*
Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) July 09, 2013 -- This summer at PenFed (Pentagon Federal Credit Union), cardholders can enjoy attractive money-savings opportunities on all their credit card balance transfer transactions. This promotional offer runs now through the end of September 2013, and is available on all PenFed cards for the life of the balance—and features no transfer fee.
“This is a great promotional offer as most financial institutions charge balance transfer fees, which all add up. We encourage folks to act now as this no balance transfer fee offer is good through the end of September,” said Kevyn Myers, executive vice president of card services with PenFed. “If you have higher-interest rate cards like retail, gas, or other merchant cards, then we encourage you to seriously consider this special summer-savings offer.”
