F!@# CapitalOne

A CapitalOne rep called yesterday, a "courtesy call", to inform us that they were raising the interest rate on the credit card, from 4.7% to 14%......Not much of a balance on it and we've always been on time with payments. They said it was because of the tough economic environment..... That card was cut up and filed, so the rep could hear it being cut.
Eff them and all the other predatorial credit card companies and banks. They are one of the primary facilitators of this crisis. They were the ones loaning money to people who were broke. It was a case of broke people buying things on credit, and now the national credit card debt is around $14 Trillion!!!!
And CapitalOne wants us to help bail them out and pay for the people who don't pay their bills???????
