Another reason to close Creditone

I got married recently, and since then I've been calling my creditors to change my name.  Everything went smoothly with all of them except for Creditone, as they want to charge me a $25 fee...um, no thanks

 

Goodbye and good riddens!!!!!Smiley Very Happy

Bravo good decision 

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Wow, that's...odd! Can't believe they would charge you over a name change that you would think would be a legal requirement!

Ahh wells, good reason to close them for good! Congrats on your path to better credit as well as your marriage!

Did they try to charge you a cancelation fee as well?
