About credit card chip
If the card is divided, you have a problem. If you have a smart card (ie, with a chip on board), then the salt water (or contaminated water) can cause the chip to corrode. Fresh water is not a problem - and if it was in salt water, in fact the card should be rinsed in freshwater to remove salt and other contaminants. If the chip starts to erode, we need a new card.

Turn it into a lesson. Give your child a credit account with you and the lender. When your child wants something they agree to buy and then "bill" to his son for the item purchased. If your child does not return the money over time begin to turn in the interest (just below their allocation or something).
And
Explain that a credit card is not free money, as portrayed. Explains that everything that is bought on credit must be paid at one time or another. And credit is the amount of people get into debt so bad that they can never leave. It's a good thing to teach a child from the beginning.

Bank cards usually have lower interest rates, higher limits and can be used in more places. A store card can be limited only to that particular store.
Even if the store card has a logo of major credit cards, still have higher rates of interest and can also be run on the board terminated once the particular store decides to suspend the contract with that particular financial group .
Credit cards remain the store by a bank. They are not owned by the store. In particular:
- Visa Card "GE Money
- Meta-Chase (I)
- Best Buy, HSBC / Orchard Bank or free, depending on the card.

You may or may not qualify for a card with a limit sufficient to cover the two balances. It really depends on what is in your credit report. If your story is limited (too new, too few) can not qualify.
Read the fine print of the offer.
Sometimes the offers of 0% have additional traps. What will the interest rate to 0% of the offer expire? You should plan on paying most, if not all, of the balance of the credit card within that period of 12 months. Carry balances and shifting debt from one card to another may have problems.
Well since they have a higher score you can get a credit limit of large size. I really do not know what will pass though. I had the same idea and there were two letters that he wanted to transfer.
I ended up getting only half of what I needed to transfer them so I do not really help at all. I did make more payments. You can apply for the card and then if long enough, you can tranfer balances. Or just a tranfer and the other is whether enough.
