As some of you may be aware, Best Buy offers a credit card that has promotional financing so you can buy more expensive electronics without having to worry about typical interest or minimum payments (if you pay it off in full by the financing timeline agreement). Well when I was on the fence about financing a product I asked a Best Buy employee if it would hurt my credit to finance by holding a balance, they said it would not impact it at all. I was skeptical and for good reason as I just found out today on credit karma that my credit score dropped significantly from financing with the credit card. Not blaming anyone but myself, I just want others to be aware, your promotional finance DOES in fact affect your credit score! I don’t want others who are watching their credit for something make the same mistake I did.

Hi, I was planning to buy a tablet, and I saw this thing called best buy financing, where it says that you can pay portions per month instead of paying in full. Is that what it means? Does anyone know exactly what is best buy financing? Thanks in advance!
