My First Premier preapproval woohoo

36% APR, 175.00 dollar AF 49.00 after first year, 174.00 monthly maintenance fee after the first year at 14.40 per month.  What an offer I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on this one.   Someone stop me now.  :smileylol:  You know even when I was in credit hell and no one wanted me I knew this was a bad deal, how do they get any customers at all?  I went six plus years in a cash only world while getting myself back together I've thrown so many of FP and Credit One's away I could have filled my own landfill.  But now I have better.  My advice to anyone run far away from those two.

Re: My First Premier preapproval woohoo

I just closed my two FP cards. It was a very happy day for me. I'll never have to log onto their stupid website and see that dumb lion again.
I was late with a payment one month and they called and I told them I would send a payment in 2 weeks, I was having cash flow problems. They called me everyday asking for payment. So annoying
