Re: APR Reductions on Three Cards

Wait, what?! You can do this? I thought you could only receive an APR reduction IF (and only if) there was some promotional offer, and anyways the reduction would only last during the limited time of that offer! How did you even approach the conversation - just asking the first agent that answered? I've had three of my CCs for the last 8-9 years and have never tried this because I was under the impression it wasn't possible!

It's possible with most credit cards with the exception of Chase.

 He not only upgraded my account so there will be no annual fee going forward, but he refunded the $39 that I had paid in January!

 

 


This is the big congratulations, saving that $39 per year is what will be noticeable.

 

Oh, congratulations on the APR reductions and the CLI too Smiley Tongue
