I have arrived...

My First Premier Pre-Approval letter FINALLY came today.  Smiley Tongue
 
Not only did I find great humor in being selected.. reading the atrocious fees made opening the letter that much more entertaining.
 
Keep in mind, this card usually starts with a $250 CL.
 
 
-Account Setup Fee: $20 (Because they can and you are a sucker)
 
-Program Fee: $95 (See above)
 
-Annual Fee: $48 (All cards have an AF right?)
 
-Participation Fee: $72 (Or $6 a month for your conveinence!!.. LOL)
 
-Monthly Maint Fee: $3 (Don't worry.. this only applies to closed account with a bal..ha!)
 
-Additional Card Fee: $20 (Annually per card.. Hey, this is high quality plastic here!!)
 
-CLI Fee: $25 ($25 for a $50 increase.. whoohoo!)
 
-Over the Limit Fee: $25 (To be expected)
 
-Copying Fee: $3 (Copying want exactly?)
 
-Internet Access Fee: $3.95 (Ummmm. ok. Because their online account access is THAT GOOD)
 
-Wire Transfer Fee: $5 (LMAO)
 
-Autodraft Fee: $11 (WTF??)
 
-Express Delivery Fee: $25 (Because you can't wait to use your $72 of avail credit)
 
-Return Item Fee: $24 (Huh?)
 
-Foreign Transaction Fee: 1% (Crap.. and I was going to book my trip to Fiji on this card)
 
-Premier Credit Protection: $0.89 per $100 (I am not even going there...)

On positive note you get 0% of 12 months for any BT. Might be hard trying to determine how to allocate across your $72 of avail credit!

Re: I have arrived...

Wouldn't it be easier just to give them money every month without the card?  Smiley Very Happy
The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Tuscani,
 
In all your wisdom and knowledge, can't believe you would need a card with such a huge balance, I thought you had it going on?  Smiley Very Happy

Whoa! Those fees, T&C, are onerous. Glad they never sent me that offer when I was desperate.

You forgot the fee for "paying" online...  They charge you a "electronic check" fee to pay THEM. Disgusting!! Smiley Surprised
