Yea....that's what Bernie Ebbers CEO of Worldcomm and many others said too, right before they went to Federal Prison for 25 plus years for breaking laws and ripping people off.
Ebbers self-reported to Oakdale Federal Correctional Institution in Oakdale, Louisiana on September 26, 2006, driving himself to the prison in his Mercedes.[22] He is serving his sentence as inmate #56022-054 [23] in the low-security portion of the complex, which typically houses non-violent offenders and is built more like a school dormitory. The earliest date he can be released is in July 2028, at which time he will be over 85 years old.[24]

You call it prison? It sounds like a resort.

I don't care what it sounds like, "he's in there"...for the next 25 plus years. And the Oakland Federal prison isn't a country club. It's a low security facility for non-violent offenders. You can try and convince yourself of that if you would like. But these guys aren't being feed lobster and cracked Crab and playing golf. But in any case the fact remains is that he's in there for the next 25 and thats where they all need to go. PERIOD
HSBC got me too! and get this. I just dropped 500.00 on my HSBC through them. They lowerd my limit 600.00 causing my utilization to bounce right back up 
and I contested that. I had just paid off all my lil credit cards!!! 2 months prior!!! They claim they took a "snap shot of my credit...I told them it was BS as i had just paid off all my CC. I asked if it had anything to do with the economy? she said no.....yeah right. then the dumb ass proceeds to ask me if i want to purchase the sorry ass credit protection program!!! i said how in the world can you ask me that after you basically tell me with my CL decrease that you cant trust me??? now you want me to tack on 9.99 a month??? gimme a break!I also said what if i had only payed minimum would you have still lowerd my CL $600.00? i mean c'mon! heres the kicker. I vowed to myself to only send minimum payments from this point on and NEVER use it again. I mailed my min payment on the 19th, it wasnt due till the 28th. They conveniently didnt recieve it till the 30th causing me a late fee and overlimit fee! I called them furious....said i wouldnt recomend them to ANYONE. that they were scamming consumers and it was BS....they said they would reverse the charges since i had been a valued customer for a year.....screw HSBC! i will NEVER use this card AGAIN....
