This is an e-mail I just sent to Angela Otey at WSB this morning. Please copy it and send it on to her as if everyone out here does this we may be able to make them see how valuable a program this is for those with less-then-perfect credit. Please do so TODAY! Sample: Dear Ms. Otey: I am writing to you to ask your bank to reconsider the fate of your secured Visa credit card program. As you are no doubt aware the interest rate that you offer is well below any other in the industry. It has come to my attention through various credit card message boards that many would like to suggest an interest rate increase as an alternative to the discontinuance of the secured card program. I personally would be willing to pay a higher interest rate (9.5% has been suggested by some) in order to continue to keep my card. I sincerely hope that this message (and hopefully many others that you will receive) will have some bearing on the outcome of this program Thank you for your time, (Your name)
