And there were two enclosures regarding terms. I haven't had time to thoroughly read every little item, but it looks like the only changes are to the delinquency and cash advance rates. I can't find anything on raising my purchase rate, or on charging a fee for BTs. I will wait and see what happens when my balance is transferred out to a teaser rate.
Thanks for keeping us posted. I posted here last week that I got a change in apr. effective August 15th. I plan to pay off my balance anyway. So when my teaser rate changes to the higher rate next month, it really won't affect me. I am also trying to negotiate with Nextcard now on the new rate. Jim
Jim, I never had that teaser rate and my original APR was 12.99%. That may be why they haven't raised it. It's still my lowest rate, (I'm working on the others) and does have the rewards program. I'm not carrying much of a balance, tho...this month's finance charge was $3.44.
I'M WATCHING THEM LIKE A HAWK...If my 9.99% goes away...there card goes... WIFE'S E-MAIL RESPONSE...I KNOW EVERYBODY IS CURIOUS!!!

Actually, I see some humor here in regard to my situation. But only mine because in the end, I will just keep Nextcard as a good tradeline and nevercarry a balance. I really prefer to pay every card off every month. The humor is this: For 20 years, I had the finest of credit and never thought about it. For 1 year, I had a credit nightmare but really never thought about it. For 2 years, I restored credit without much problem but never really thought about it. THEN I FOUND THE BOARD BY ACCIDENT - So far in July, I have "raised cain" with Robinsons-May, Capital One and Nextcard. Jim
