I had a deposit-secured visa for a few years. When I qualified for another card and had an offer of 0% interest if the balance transferred, I called Home Trust to get the final amount owed. They told me they don't allow balance transfers. I had 2 different customer service agents tell me that. They lied. I was able to transfer the full amount to my new card.
Telling customers they can't do balance transfers is incredibly unethical. They don't give you any interest on the money used as a security deposit either while collecting 20% interest on purchases.
I don't recommend them!
