    Hello,

    I just got 3k in tax returns...I have the following two things I can do.

    Credit Union LOC
    Limit: 3000
    Current Balance: 3000
    4 years never late

    AT&T Universal Card
    Limit: 6200
    Current Balance: 5916
    2000 blance transfer with 3.9% apr for the life of the transfer. Rest balance is 10.5%
    8 Years never late

    which one should I pay out..should I give the LOC 3k and get it over with or pay down the cc?

    Thanks,
    Dharmesh

    PS: Amazingly enough..i applied for the Chase wal mart card and got approved for $200 limit. Called back and said WTF..and next thing I know it's up to 4000 .. hehe my TU score must have improved.

    Pay down {or off} whatever carries the highest interest rate.
