    Hi all, just wondering your thoughts about this. I have this on a majority of my cards, and I am wondering if it is worth it. I mean on my higher balances it runs pretty steep every month. your thoughts??

    Credit Protection and Extended warranties are a racket. It is another way to eat up your dollars.

    It's one big rip off.
    Just add more to the face value of your regular life policy!

    Re: Credit Protection

    If you read the terms, you find it's almost impossible to get any benefits.

    Unless you die, of course. But then your credit record doesn't matter any more.

    It's a way to get you to insure THEIR risk of YOUR death. With them taking a big commission off the top.

    It's definitely a ripoff. And a huge drag on repaying your balances.

    Your SURVIVORS may need the MONEY...but it usually does NOT go to them...it pays off the credit card...

    "IF" you die in MOST cases...they write it off and your SURVIVORS pay NOTHING
