The answer if you call it takes 3 to 4 biz days for the cash to show up. When you go into the branch you get RIGHT there and THEN....so now it's CASH Advance at the you MUST BE HIGH Rate of 24.99 %.


So were it looked like I would save a few bucks in now going to cost me a few hundred. No way I'm leaving the balance and just going to pay it. So I have the 160 fee plus a month of interest 72.00.

Bottom line for me is if it ain't broke DON'T Fix it.

Also just so you all know...I really thought it was a good deal and would just free up some cash. I'm not upside down in either of my places or do I have any refi BS.


If you have the cash, go in and pay the amount in full. Then use the balance transfer option to get the 0% promo money transferred into your account over the phone.
