As per my posts from last month about my treatment by Citibank over
interest on my mastercard......
today my March bill arrived with $1.84 more interest. I quickly called up
& asked what will it cost me to clear this folishness up & cancel my card.
the nice clerk immediately waived the $1.84 interest and passed me on to a
supervisor.
After hearing my story, she apologized and immediately offered me a $25.00
credit and informed me that the $39.00 yearly fee would be squashed.
Only bad thing... my interest rate jumps from 12.9% to 19%........
I agreed because I don't carry balances on my card.
I may...or may not use it anymore..I'll see.


Heck, when my banker asked if I had their card in 2004 I said no as all your
cards are with service fees. They offered me a no fee and 1% kickback card.
Yep, one a year I get a cheque for 1% of my purchases. I do think the rates
are high for untimely payment, but I always pay in full on time.

I will not pay for a card.
