I am paying 5.25% for an unsecured line of credit ($15k) with TD....am I getting hosed? just curious what rate others are getting. I am not interested in a home equity line.

Thanks in advance...

5.25 seems a little higher then I would be willing to pay, but I know nothing about you, your income or credit history.

I have great credit history and I just got my bank to drop my unsecure line to 5.99. Don't think you're getting hosed.

Ha, we're breaking our mortgage and switching banks. They offered us 10% loc! We laughed - our credit is in the 800's. Our existing one is 5.5%.

I strongly recommend that you pay off this debt ASAP and stop, repeat STOP, buying things on credit. The rtule you should follwo is simple " If you dont have the cash for it, than dont buy it". Consumer debt is a curse. Be smart and cut up your credit cards, pay cash, do not borrow money !


Man, you never stop with the stupid posts do you. Credit is good for everyone if it is used wisely.

Yeah I have a line of credit with a zero balance on it. It's called 'a bit of security in case of an emergency'. Guess I'm just a schmuck.

I think my PCF one is over 6%. I guess I would care if I really used it what the rate was, but I've at times floated some bucks there for a few days. For the most part, I use it to write cheques so I don't stress when people go cashing them at random times. Rather then go into O/D on my chequing account, or keep a high enough balance to handle unexpected cheques, I leave all of that in my high interest savings and cut cheques outta the LOC.

Does someone piss in your bran flakes every morning, or is trying to belittle people you don't know on the internet just a form of amusement for you?

^^Just so no one else wastes their time, Yukon's post was already reported when I tried to report it. :) Great minds think alike.

What is wrong with using a home equity line of credit? Debt is debt no matter what type of product it is (credit card, line of credit, overdraft) but you are better off paying a lower interest rate than 5.25%, no?

I just moved over to a HELOC for flexibility. Plus I want to do some investments with the equity I have. Our rate is 3.5% and I secured a portion of the HELOC as a "mortgage" at 2.99% for 4 years.

I have an unsecured one at 5% as well, never used, just there in case... Probably will close it now that we have the HELOC...
