The basic concept of a credit card balance transfer is to take the outstanding balance, or debt, owed on one credit card and moving it to another credit card. Most credit card companies offer incentives or rewards for transferring a balance to their card, such as lower interest rates or a limited period of interest free rates. One needs to open a new credit card account with the new company and go through their balance transfer process, which can differ between companies. Once the new card notifies one that the transfer is complete, one should verify this with one's old credit card, at which point the old credit card billing statement thereafter should show a zero balance.

Balance transfer fee guidelines have changed beginning in 2007 and into 2008. Most creditors still have either a 3 or 4% balance transfer fee with a minimum of $5. However, there is no longer a maximum charge on balance transfer among most credit card issuers. This means that a balance transfer on a $10,000 offer could cost you $300 or more as a balance transfer fee. Furthermore, this balance transfer fee is often added into the next month's payment. This could cause this payment to be $300 higher than what you were expecting, which could make it hard to make the required minimum payment. Of course, if you miss that minimum payment, expect to see your interest rates skyrocket!

Very good question. Simply call the phone number one of your credit cards and give them the credit card number of the other card you want to pay.

I just got a new credit card. I dont have any credit cards other then this one. If I cancel this credit card that is new with zero balance will it affect my credit score?
Everything you do related to credit cards will affect your credit. My advice would be to leave the credit card account open and here's why; While just cancelling your credit card (with no balance) shouldn't hurt your credit, here are a couple things to think about; 1) your credit history makes up 15% of your credit score. No history means no points. 2) your payment history is makes up 35% of your credit score. I know you said you don't have a balance, but an occasional purchase and on-time payment will help your credit. The only thing that could hurt you if have too much available credit. If the card has a $50,000 limit, this could work against your. But I doubt it, seeing this is your first card.
