“What’s Been Happening With Your Credit Card Account?”

by Tim Manni

 

If you’re interested in sharing your experience with your credit card account, the Consumers Union wants to know about it:

Credit card reform passed but we’ve got months before the protections go into effect. We want to monitor what credit card companies are doing in the meantime and expose their sneaky tactics.

Has your credit card company made any of the following changes to your account since May 2009?

  • Added a new fee or raised an old fee.
  • Increased your interest rate.
  • Closed your account.
  • Lowered your credit limit.
  • Took away rewards.

If you have a new experience with your credit card company since the credit card reform law passed in May 2009 please let us know about it. (Please do not include account numbers)

The Consumers Union say they “are so anxious to speak with you” that you can even contact their credit card campaign organizer, Tim Marvin, at marvti@consumer.org.
