New customers

Why do banks and credit card customers pay massive bribes to get new customers and then treat them like sh*t when they get them?
Santan-bloody-der are offering £100 to open a current account with them, and 5% interest for a year. Yet if you are already with them, they charge you £60 for going £3 overdrawn!
adios crooks!

Egg on face

my credit card has just increased it's interest rate from 21% to 26%. What a disgrace when the base rate is 0.5%. I have the option to not accept the rate and cut up the card, so I have done this.
GREED, GREED, GREED - I shall pay this card off as soon as I can, and never will I get a chicken card again - Bye Bye Crooks!

Credit cards

If you are close to your limit on your credit card, watch out! The greedy banks add the interest charge BEFORE they take the direct debit, resulting in you going over your limit and incurring a fine. If they did it after taking the payment, then this would not occur. If the current balance plus interest charge would make you reach your limit, then the transaction should be rejected. This is just another cynical trick to rip a further £12 off you! I cant tell you which credit card it is, but chickens lay them.

Passwords

My MINT credit card uses some new type of security for on-line shopping, in that as well as having to type in the card number expiry date and security code, I have to type in a password too. However, they don't want you to type in the whole password, they want the 3rd, 5th and 8th characters (these numbers change each time). So whats the best way to determine the 3rd, 5th and 8th characters? Write it down. We are told never to write passwords down. You can reset your password, so I do this every time with random keystrokes on the keyboard. So what is the point? Is this any more secure? Sorry MINT, but I wont be using your card any more. Come on guys; keep it simple!
Oh yes and another moan about MINT: They don't have an email address, you have to contact them via a premium rate 0870 number - bloody crooks!
