As part of my mini AOR, I applied for a business card with Bank Atlantic. I could swear that my info said 0% for 15 months with max $75 balance transfer fee. I also thought they sent a check with the card. However, I received my card today and there was no check with it. I called and they would not transfer to my checking account. So, I have a check coming from Citi on a 0% for 12 months with no BT fee. My plan is as soon as that check arrives and is posted on my Citi account, I will BT that amount to Bank Atlantic and then do another BT from Citi to my checking account to get that money off there since Citi has no BT fee. Is this the best that I can do with this Bank Atlantic card? Thanks for your input.

That is what I did. Bank Altantic gives good lines but their (Juniper) systems are bad

did you not put down a bt amount during application for bank atlantic? i put down 18000 they gave me $15200 limit.

i assume they will do the BT?

I did not request a balance transfer at the time of app because I didn't have a balance to transfer. They gave me 25K so I really want to find a way to take advantage of it. I talked to the CSR and she confirmed that they will do a BT at 0% for 15 months with max BT fee of $75 but definitely will not transfer into my checking account.

Is Bank Atlantic biz cards viewable with Yodlee or payable with BofA billpay?
I have the card and did a BT to another card also. I know this is a Juniper/Barclays bank card, but the login doesn't work with the Yodlee Juniper login and I couldn't add it to my existing Juniper account login that I could see.
Barclay's Bank DE is in BOA billpay, but my BankAtlantic bizcard # was not acceptable to it.

same here. no BT check in the welcome package. called CSR and they don't BT to checking or send BT checks, only convenience checks at the cash advance rate. so i will just BT to a citi card (once i get them) and do a credit balance refund.

no yodlee yet. jaircon put in a New Site Request at forum.yodlee.com. Wouldn't hurt for FWFers to bump that thread.

haven't found a way to billpay this card either.

It's what I did (no checks, no direct deposit with bank atlantic; but this promo makes up for it!)

I just ran into the same issue this morning. They won't even pay off a credit line, it has to be a Visa, MC, AE, discover or store card. I was planning to do the same thing as the OP, I requested BT checks from my citi personal and business cards this morning and will then use the Bank Atlantic to pay them off and then do another Citi BT

why don't you just overpay your citi card and ask for the refund check,they (Citi) take about 7 days to send.

weird how they make you BT $250 less than the credit line but the fee is $75. not bad 0% 15 months 1% payback ,not on personal credit report. can't really complain much eh?

OP, sorry to hijack your thread, I am just wondering which CRA Bank Atlantic pulled for you guys and if you can provide the State of residence, it will be helpful. I am trying to clear some duplicate accounts showing excessive balances on TU for the last 2-3 weeks but still unsuccessfull but hopefully it will be clear in next week or so. My balances on the other CRA's (Eq, Ex) showing the accurate balances.

everyone pulls Equifax in GA (since they are based out of here). Oddly this bank did not, nor did FIA/MBNA.

Equifax 3 in 1 seems to not know lame product, thankfully it was free unthankfully due to lexisnexis data leak.
