Hey, I'm looking for a great credit card comparison website that actually reviews and shows information on different credit cards. Any one know of where I can find a good site like that?
Credit card comparison sites are a dime a dozen, but one that I've recently seen and used can be found at http://www.get-mycard.net.
They seem to pull together a lot of good information from multiple credit card offers/sites and give you the vital information to make an informed decision.
I hope this helps!

I did this last week. My new credit card is showing the balances of the others, but the old credit cards are not showing that they've been paid.
If it has posted to your new account, it should show up on your old accounts within a week or so…call them and ask if there are any transactions posting which may not be showing; you don't want to end up paying interest on both the old and the new accounts. I have done transfers which have posted immediately to the new card, but took over a week on the old card, but when it did post, it was dated back to a day after I initiated the transfer.

This TV interview shows how easy it is to have your credit card number stolen from your purse or wallet without even touching it. New PayPass ™,Visa Wave (r), Amex Express Pay (r), and Discover zip(r) cards contain radio frequency identification - RFID - chips - that can broadcast your personal information to a remote reader. This is generally called skimming. The Identity Stronghold Secure Sleeves they show protect you from having your information stolen this way. You can buy them at www.idstronghold.com

Whenever I watch American TV shows they're always going on about credit cards when they go out to eat or whatever. For example:
"Do you take discovery cards?"
"Do you take American Express?"
Why would an establishment not take one type of credit card? You either take cards or you don't in my experience (in Britain). In Britain and Europe restaurants and such really don't seem to care whether or not you have a certain type of credit card.
So can someone explain why Americans seem to judge each other on their type of credit card?
In the UK most people have Visa or Mastercard, and you never have to ask or get questioned when paying at a restaurant or shop.
Maybe the companies pay the show to mention the credit card for a subtle bit of advertising?
