They raised my interest rate to 30 percent without consulting me. They stated they sent out a letter, but I doubt it. Nevertheless, I paid them off with my 401k money because I didn't have the money to pay them off. But it is better to use that money than to pay 30% interest. That card would have never been paid off. I would pay more in interest than the penalty and taxes on my 401k. They are rude and nasty also...they will not budge. So I paid them off. What I really wanted to do was claim bankruptcy so they wouldn't get a dime out of me....but? Please read this post so important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The banks are all in favor of no restrictions on them, lots of restrictions on us. This would go a long way towards leveling the playing field and restoring citizens' equity in our system.
