Lowered my CC interest rate

August 1st, 2006 at 11:05 pm

Figured I give it a shot. I have the Costco Amex and never paid attention to the interest rate, as all mine had always been excellent. Did'nt realize I was paying quite so much for the "rebate" at the end of the year. My interest rate was 17.22%! Holy crappoli!
So I called them and they lowered it to 12.22%. I took it because it is better than nothing and we just received an offer for a 6.9%. Until I make that happen, I took the 12%. Nuts and crazy! I don't need the rebate that much, so now we will just use it for DH's reimbursed business expenses and nothing else!!

    Good going. What's the Bible quote about "Ask and ye shall receive."

    What's sad is how few people are willing to invest the brief time and minor effort to make the call and talk to someone about a rate adjustment. You did. Shows spunk.
