ISP Information:
A packet-based means of wireless data transfer used widely in Japan and offered by Japanese mobile phone company NTT DoCoMo. iMode uses CWML (Compact Wireless Markup Language) instead of WAP's WML for data display. i-Mode was introduced in 1999 and was the first method available to browse the Web from a cellular phone.
ISP Glossary:
i-Mode - The key part of these agreements are the "introductory rate". What does therate change to after the term with the low rate? Some go up to 23%. Afteranother 4 months you would loose any benifit of the lower 8% rate.Your MUCH better off finding a card that _stays_ at a lower rate, such as8%-12%, despite the introduction rate.I wonder when credit card companies will just start offering a good, honestrate to lure new customers in. For many years most just seem to be runningscam after scam. I had a nice deal with FirstUSA (said I would never go backto them). They offered 9.9% and would charge me a flat monthly amonut that,if I did not use the card, would pay off the loan in 4 years. I liked theidea that someone would keep me on track. Lasted 2 1/2 years until Bank Onebought them. Bank One jacked my rate up to 12% (no notice) and gave me oneof those low "minimum" payments which would make my loan last about 50years."paul jackson" wrote in messagenews:oatjb.7189$pz5.1438195@newsfep2-win.server.ntli.net... I have just seen an advert for a credit card offering me 0% interest on my payments on transfers for 8 months , a big carrot , some other cards are also offering 6 month deals , is it too good to be true , the terms of service although small to read do not seem to mention any catches that Ican see but I am sure their will be one somewhere
