However, it is my oldest major credit card on file so I just deal with it, knowing it at least got me where I am
Last year I called HSBC just before the AF was due and customer service waived it for me. It might be a good idea to do that when it comes due, and then hit up Cap1 exec office for a product change this spring when they have the accounts fully transfered.
I am stoked that I can keep my oldest card. I kind of get a kick out of the thought that my sub-prime 300 dollar Orchard card might someday be a 20k World Mastercard with the same born on date and history. I'm looking forward to the conversation;
"What, this card? Oh, yeah, I opened it back in '08 when my FICO was like 540. You don't have one of these?"
Bwahahaha!
