I have kept a credit card paid, was not late once. They raised my interest rate, from 21% to 29%. {Lets just say people are warning about this bank here on other recent threads} And I never missed a payment even though Ive only been able to pay a little over minimums, Why is this happening to...

Those places are rackets. Didnt usury used to be against the law? I feel bad for you, because I know it is desperation that leads people to go to those places, not everyone has generous or well-enough friends or family to go to when they need help.

I hope it wasnt one of those shows they ask questions trying to make people look dumb. I would understand why you would be upset. I know history inside and out, but I know if I was walking down some city street and busy thinking about my day and some guy jumped out with a microphone and...

Thanks for your answers. I wanted to catch what people thought before jumping to conclusions.

Just ignore, I decided to sign the lease, was just surprised since everyplace Ive lived has given me month to month free and clear after first year was paid off.. we have enough income to pay the rent and Ive always paid rent first anyhow, and this apartment is nice compared to the dumps in...

Yeah youre probably right. Going to someone else who has their hand out, sounds like a bad idea. I will transfer one card or portion of it to lower interest rate. Thanks.

Someone tiold me that there are bunch of rip-off ones out there. Who are the legit ones? [prefer non-profit]

We moved to new town since husband had been unemployed, , dont know anyone here, husband got good professional job, only had it for 4 months, they let him go three days ago telling him, that he was "not a good fit" with the company even though he never missed one day of work and put total effort...
