    I'm not sure if everyone got this or just me since I haven't used this account in over 8 months. Maybe they don't like that I'm paying them off? ;-)

    LOL...Hey doc could you email me some basic steps for HTML on the board? I can't figure it out. When I try it I screw it up. I would REALLY appreciate it.

    I got the same letter today. I am going to cancel the card anyway.

    I just got this letter today also. I have had a card with them since 2000. Anybody know why this is changing? Are they not offering secure credit cards anymore? With these changes is there a chance for increase in interest rate APR on the card?

    When I called for an increase, I was told that they had to downsize.

    I cancelled it because while they were great, I was told they would be doing this and felt they might go down soon.

    Sigh. It was a good company while it lasted. But you can't look back.....

    Well that settles it then. I'm pushing them to the head of the line--short as it may be--to be paid off before April. Then I'll cancel the account as well.

    I wonder how long it'll take to get the deposit back?

    When you close the account, have them credit the DEPOSIT as a payment...then send the final payment.
