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.
I do that too. Put everything on the AX Blue. Last year I got better
than $400 back on my purchases. I make back better then 1% on that card.
