Chasing A Tale
This is going to be brief, but I know at least two people read this blog because they have decided our lives are better than the soap opera they had been watching on T.V. so I feel obligated to make passing mention of two letters I received in the mail today. They are a follow-up to the saga I outlined last month in this post.
One letter was from "card member services" at Chase bank. I'll skip the first few lines and cut to the...sorry that would be too easy...here's the line that matters: "We are pleased to confirm that the APR for purchases is 7.99% fixed...we apologize for any previous discrepancies....Please be assured that these APRs, along with a credit for any applicable finance charges and fees, will be reflected on your next billing statement."
The other letter was from the Better Business Bureau of Delaware...coincidentally it contained an exact copy of the letter from Chase and asked if I considered the matter closed.
I do.
I still also plan to close our account with Chase. It shouldn't have taken complaints to the Better Business Bureau, the Texas Attorney General, and various members of Congress to get the company to honor its word...but I must admit I'm feeling a little smug.
Don't worry, I'll get over it...tune in tomorrow.

Same Bat-Time, Same Bat-Channel!
Just to let you know - I must be number 2 who reads this....
Glad they finally listened to their PR people / saw reason / decided that because you work in the media you were to high a risk to keep offside / someone at the bank got lucky this morning and decided to do something nice to another human being.
Keep chasing those tigers away!!!
Make that at least three people who read your blog!
Numero 4 says "Congrats"!
I don't always read your blog, but sometimes I do :)
Ya couldda gone for the cheap pun there, Michael -- all six of us would have laughed and agreed that your life is *much* more fun to read about, in all it's precarious ups and downs, than what the tube has been offering of late.
One more demon down - congratulations!
Obviously, you have more of a following than you realize. :o) Woohoo on winning the Chase bank battle!!
Stay

Yeah, I'm smug too. For you and all the dragons your sword has slain. :)
Well done, and patiently waited for. :)
There is hope for we other dragonslayers out here!
