CREDIT CARD COBWEB CUNNING
March 8th 2010 23:31
Yes, once again, with the recent changes in United States laws
regarding credit card companies, many of them are trying to
circumvent the written legalese through cunning, yet subtle
ways. Like the cobwebs in your abode, they seem harmless
enough, yet they have the ability to capture the unwary nano
scale organism.....and as far as credit card companies go
folks, we, the consumer are that nanoscale organism ripe
for the devouring.
Here's the latest crafty change to Kohl's ( a U.S. chain
store operation) coming to you verbatim from the crafty keyboard
of one, Troy A. Carrothers, an alleged, " senior vice president."
It's up to you and of course, your legal team to find the cobwery
traps inherent in the following trap:
"We are writing to inform you about changes to your Account that
will be effective February 21, 2010. These changes apply to the
variable Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) on your account ( e.g.
standard, or penalty) that have a minimum APR. This means that
such APRs generally vary with the market based on the Prime Rate.
Please keep this notice as it amends your Cardmember Agreement.
Your other Account terms remain in effect.
If you have any questions, please contact us. It will be our pleasure to
assist you."
Thank you Troy buddy for that rather mouthful of verbage.
Tell us "Troy," short for perhaps "Trojan Horse?" How many consumers
do you expect to Bernie Madoff out of their hard-earned dollars?
