Dear Debt Adviser,
With the credit card companies charging 4 percent minimums,
I was wondering if I can pay less than the minimum on two
of my three cards and concentrate extra funds on the third
account to get it paid off? Is there a penalty for paying
a significant amount on a bill, but not all the way up to
the listed minimum? Thank you!
