True they are still advertising that 18 month zero percent interest at the store. I shopped there yesterday and saw the ads all over, especially by the TV's.
It's stating any purchases $499 and up and thats exactly what i got, a flat screen tv. I have not opened it yet and i really want to take it back and get a refund. On my online statement it still shows the due date for the promo plan as 6/2010. I'm going to keep my eye on it but is that legal for them to hike up your rates like that?

I have a nasty feeling that the adverts say it is available on "approved products", which may have been inserted to allow them to do this.
But I agree, it is immoral and should be illegal.
I got the same notice, although my card was a 90 days interest free for all purchases card:
thread discussing the elimination of 90 day grace period
I really do wonder if they are changing the terms on the balance you already have or are doing it to future purchases. If they really are getting rid of your interest free promotion so soon after you agreed to it, then that's really fishy - I am surprised there isn't more uproar about it.
