    Credit Card Rant
    « on: March 23, 2009 - 10:42:58 PM »
    After having a credit card for the last 25 years with the same company, they sent me a letter today cancelling the card due to inactivity.  True, I haven’t carried a balance on it for two years.  However, I have always paid them on time and I have a long history with them.  What are they afraid of?

    I am not too worried about it though.  I am through paying credit card companies their ridicules fees and high interest rates, so I think more of them will be contacting me to cancel their cards as well.

    My wife's going in this morning to get the fees back. have to do it every year, but we get them back! this year, $135.00 + some other $35.00 charge. You need to have a good relationship with your manager.

        I've always been a cash guy. I only use my credit cards if i'm ordering parts and records, and pay them off immediately. Cash is King, and I never live outside my means. The banks are bloodsuckers, and you need to fool them by using their cards, then paying them down before the Vampires drain you.
