Yes, this is referred to as a 'balance transfer'. There are numerous credit cards designed specifically for balance transfers that offer a 0% intro APR for a specified period of time. You can find a complete list of these offers here:

http://www.asapcreditcard.com/0-apr.html

You can save a lot of money using 0% APR credit cards. Just make sure you don't overspend or create even more debt with one of these offers-- because when the intro period is over-- you could be paying a lot more in interest.

Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK!


Sammy
Yes, you can pay a credit card w another credit card.

that is the easiest way to go to financial hell.

You can transfer funds from your credit card into your bank account then use the funds to pay your other credit card bill. They charge a whack of interest to do it, but at least it'll keep the creditors away.


antivinegar
Yes you can


Shadow419
Yes you can, but you are setting yourself up for a bigger problem. Anytime you use one credit card to pay another, you are creating more debt and interest for yourself on that card. If it's a one time thing, no problem, but please try not to make a habit if this or you will end up in a vicious robbing Peter to pay Paul cycle.


Andy
Yes, it's referred to as "borrowing from Peter to pay Paul". By doing so you will be starting a vicious circle from which one rarely emerges. If finances are really bad, talk to someone about debt consolidation.


LaQueshia J
Yes, if your card has balance transfers availble or a cash advance option. However, unless the interest is breath-takenly high, I would just bite the bullet and pay the bill. Juggling credit cards is risky business. It's sort of like playing in a casino, "The house always wins!"

Sure you can. Lots of people do that when they apply for credit cards that offer 0% interest for the first six to twelve months. Heck, on some credit card applications you can write in the name of the company and the account number and they'll pay it off for you if you're approved. And yes, you can get cash advances to pay off credit cards, but you have to watch out because some credit card companies won't allow you to take more than $1,000.00 in cash advances. So be sure to do a little research first.

yes phone them and do a balance transfer!


iceman
There are ways to do it, it is not normally accpeted though.

Gotta tell you, it is quickest way to put yourself in a credit hole you will never get out of.
