Aparently, B of A is changing personality. Just got a
letter, that my promotional rate was going up as high possibly as 27%. And that I needed to call the number, and tell them to reject the rate increase. I did so. But, since when is it my reponsibility to tell them to keep their word? -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. |

There are better banks with better rates, unless you got to have the marble counters and high ceilings. You got lucky on this one, the choices are great unlike medical insurance companies. |

My credit is excellent, the only negative that I can think of is that I bought a house a few years back so I have more debt than I used to (but I also pay off my cards every month and have money in savings and pay all my bills on time.) Jacking up the interest rates like this just encourages me to not use credit, at least anything other than just as a convenience that is essentially treated like a checking account and is paid off every month. I'll be damned if I'll pay more than 10% interest on anything. nate |

No need to complain about interest rates. Just arrange for an automatic
deduction of the statement balance from your bank account every month. This will give you the convenience of credit cards (no need to carry cash) plus 30 days grace in paying bills, plus getting a 1% to 3%rebate on all charges. If you cannot pay your balance every month, you should not have a credit card. -- Walter www.rationality.net - "Master Betty" wrote in message ... "Stormin Mormon" wrote in message ...

"Stormin Mormon" wrote in message ... Aparently, B of A is changing personality. Just got a letter, that my promotional rate was going up as high possibly as 27%. And that I needed to call the number, and tell them to reject the rate increase. I did so. But, since when is it my reponsibility to tell them to keep their word? -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org Find a good credit union. I have been with the same one since 1958. Use a debit card. If I don't have the money to cover what I want I do without. It's a combination check or debit card and I have never been charged for anything with them. WW . |

"Stormin Mormon" wrote in message ... I hope you demanded a cashers check for 0.00 to be sent certified? There was a c/c, which I can't think of the name right now. It was for commercial accounts only. My brother had them with a $25,000 limit. He got a similar letter earlier this year, he didn't have a balance. When he inquired, he was told it was because people couldn't pay their c/c's. An oxymoron reply at it's best. If someone can't pay when the rates were 7-3/4%, how would they pay @ close to 30%? He recently told me the c/c company went under. Maybe someone here knows which one it was. |
