Chase, “Washington Mutual” loansharks, and Capital One need to be run into bankruptcy and stomped on without mercy.
Agreed, all the banks already hiked up their interest rates without even telling the consumer.
odakueffect – I totally agree with you on that. I’m guilty of doing just that, and now I’m paying for it, unfortunately. At least I recognize that it was my choice to put myself in that situation. Thankfully, I have only one credit card, and the bank has been pretty good, and they are working with me when I have questions about my bill and/or payments. They have even reduced my credit limit until I can pay off the total balance that I owe. Hopefully I can get it paid off in less than 2 yrs.
the bill didn’t go far enough, because there is still no absolute federal limit on interest rates.
This is awesome unless you pay off your cards at the end of the month.
It’s not the industry problem. It’s the people that use the cards. They have no control over their own spending and got to have everything right now. Then they go broke. Can’t feel sorry got them.
Nothing important will come of things; its just window dressing. Banks borrow from the Fed at 1% and loan that money to us suckers at 29%+ and they bribe politicians to essentially keep the status quo thievery.
Sounds like K Street is running low on money to bribe the politicians. The congress is taking steps to rein in the CC and banks? Its unpatriotic to not rob the middle class.
NICE.
I have a feeling this wouldn’t have happened if Republicans were the majority.
Wrong most of them would. And I’m not talking about scenarios where information wasn’t disclosed, I’m talking about people whom knowingly defaulted payment because they knew when they used their CC they wouldn’t have the money to begin with.
Stop trying to steer the point off course and justifying people whom are not by any means “victims”. If you borrow money and refuse to pay it back, that’s called stealing. Paying back money you borrow isn’t optional it’s part of the agreement.
I recall transitioning back into a full time college life from 6 months of military training. With all the address change and my move…. I was late on a credit card payment by 2 weeks. I was never late before as I was careful paying the $20,000 balance on it. They raised my interest rate to 32%. They wouldn’t budge. I told them that the mafia was attacked for loan sharking at a 15% interest. lol
they wouldn’t be deadbeats if they weren’t being cheated in the first place….CC Companies need an ass kicking in Congress..and more in the future…..Yeah Baby!!!
I agree some CC practices are dishonest and not clear to the consumer.
However, most CC consumers who default payments are just downright deadbeats. Most of them aren’t using credit for bare necessities, it’s for luxury goods like a big screen TV. I’m sorry but borrowing money and refusing to pay it back is the equivalent of stealing. I’m sort of glad deadbeat people who live way beyond their means get penalties.
Poor stupid people need the government to protect them from themselves.
Republicans are a coalition between the rich and the stupid…
The lobbyists are actually for way more than 29% usury – that’s chump change. Congress is trying to pass a 36% usury cap and the industry will fight it to the death. One bill in Congress would condone 391% interest for payday loans…
Democrats “for” Republicans “against” for this lets not forget that when it come time to vote…
This is great news, I’ll be surprised if it passes. Those lobbyists for 29% usery fees need to be… well I shouldn’t say, but some image of being hung off of bridges with genitals stuffed in mouths. For shame. Lobbyists for banksters are the vile slime of the earth and should be eradicated. Have they no scruples???
