Seriously, they had a breach in their own security, which caused them to shut down my current card, and then issue me another one. Sucks, but that happens.
The crappy part?
It happened in a billing cycle, so I COULD NOT MAKE A PAYMENT.
THEY CHARGED ME A $39.00 LATE FEE AND RAISED MY INTEREST RATE TO 25%
Wow, I’m calling austrian babies on this one.
I just spent most of my morning getting them to reverse something that they caused. AND THEN. AND THEN!!! the lady offered me on the phone a protection plan so this would not happen again, which was 85 cents of EVERY dollar of my minimum balance, THAT WAS THE COST OF THE PLAN. So since my new minimum balance was $92.56, the program would cost me another $78.68 a month… FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS THEIR FAULT.
Credit card companies are evil. Come on Obama, the legislation for them has to be harder then what you just signed.

So did you get the late fee taken off and your interest rate lowered??
