Remember how much I love Chase? They’re at it again! Chase sent a letter today stating they are reducing our balance by $700. This dumb move will make our credit utilization 90% of the card.

The reason why? Because we charged too much too fast. Um, huh? We haven’t charged anything on that account in eons, and while we did charge some expenses for our recent trip, we paid them off pretty quickly.links,

I suppose it’s their way of punishing us for not using our card.

They’ve moved to the top of my kill the debt list. I just can’t stand the way they run their business.

In other news, check out the recent Carnival of Pecuniary Delights over at Wisebread. If you aren’t reading Wisebread, you should. They have one of the best looking, well-written and interesting personal fiance sites on the web. I was honored to have my Fraud Alert! post included in the carnival.
