 Tart card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Credit card providers are considering withdrawing zero per cent deals, in a sign of their growing exasperation with “rate tarts” who switch cards as soon as they have to start paying interest on their borrowing.
Credit card companies believe that increasingly savvy consumers are shifting between different types of credit credit cards, personal loans and mortgages to get the best deal.

 Charles T. Tart : Space, Time, and Mind - 1978 - 20th Annual Meeting, Parapsychological Association   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Toward this end, I theorized some ten years ago (Tart, 1966) that some important aspects of the problems I've just noted resulted from a lack of immediate feedback to percipients, so they could not learn to distinguish the subtle characteristics of mental events that indicated they were actually using psi from mere guessing processes.
Since my learning theory (Tart, 1966) predicted that experimental percipients needed to have some demonstrable ESP to begin with if the feedback training was to have much effect, we needed relatively talented percipients, rather than unselected ones.
I have argued elsewhere (Tart, 1977c; in press) that this was not likely, but since it is an important question with respect to the precognition effects I shall be reporting.

 Charles T. Tart : Card Guessing Tests: Learning Paradigm or Extinction Paradigm? - 1966 - Journal of the American ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
An analysis of the typical card guessing test situation in parapsychology suggests that it is an extinction paradigm.
Important as the need for totally new approaches to studying ESP is, however, we should be doing more card tests at the same time because the card guessing tests have, by and large, never been used in a way which would bring out their possible potential.
Looking at the typical card guessing experiment introspectively, on each guessing trial the S is responding to a host of internal cues, many of them probably not clearly represented in consciousness and many of them probably extremely transient.

 Mint Credit Card? Choose from a number of 0% credit cards
A balance transfer of an outstanding balance on store cards that typically have interest rates approaching typical 30% APR to a credit card offering 0% on a balance transfer for 6 months means you save yourself money - money that you could use to reduce your overall credit card debt balance.
Remember that with credit cards only offering 0% on balance transfer any payments made are typically used to reduce the transferred balance first - new purchases may well incur interest.
With Citi Card being a market-leading card, their offer includes a 0% rate for balance transfers and new purchase plus a wide range of additional benefits.

Credit Card firms make millions on extortionate interest rates and charges that it is a pleasure to hear that so many people are taking advantage of this loophole.
If credit card companies choose to: a) make it possible to switch between cards and take advantage of a zero rate; and b) insist on keeping their interest rates high whether or not the underlying interest rate changes then they deserve to lose the £1billion a year.
However, I recently had a problem with the interest calculation on one of their monthly statements and in spite of being promised by the staff at the call centre three times that they would send me a written breakdown of the calculation (which they stated was correct), I have yet to receive the promised document.

Credit card interest rates can range from as low as 0 per cent for introductory offers to as high as 29 per cent, so if you're carrying debt you need to know exactly what interest rate you're paying.
For example, if you carry a balance of £1,000 a month on a card with a 6.9 per cent interest rate and a £50 annual fee, that's the equivalent of a no-fee card with a 12 per cent interest rate.
