Balance Transfers Terms:
Transaction is subject to credit approval. All rates and offers subject to change. The interest rates applicable to purchases or cash advances and for prior promotional balances remain unchanged. Balance transfers are treated as cash advances so interest accrues from the date the transfer is posted to your account. Balance transfers of other Pentagon Federal Credit Union credit cards, loans, and/or lines of credit are not eligible for this promotion. PenFed may stop offering this promotional rate for new balance transfers at any time and without prior notice.
You agree to allow 30 days to process your request, pay the amount(s) authorized and transfer the balance(s) to your Pentagon Federal credit card account. You may transfer up to your Pentagon Federal available credit, not to exceed your credit limit authorized by Pentagon Federal Credit Union. Please continue to make minimum payments on your other credit card(s) until the balance(s) have been transferred. All over payments must be refunded by the other institution. Payment of the amount(s) authorized by you may or may not satisfy any outstanding balance(s) on the designated account(s). Pentagon Federal is not responsible for any remaining balance(s) or additional charges with regard to such accounts, nor for any charges resulting in any delay in the payment and transfer of balances. Pentagon Federal reserves the right to refuse multiple transfers from the same credit card. Transferred balances do not qualify for cash rewards or air-travel points under the Visa Platinum Rewards Program. Balance transfers are excluded and do not earn credit toward rewards.
