Here is an article on this deceptive practice and what one person did:

http://www.consumeraffairs.com/credit_cards/discover.html


"After filing my complaint with you (see posting) and with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), Discover responded to my BBB complaint and agreed to notify all the credit bureaus to remove the delinquency notice. So there is hope for Discover Card after all. Thanks for listening."

I think people also need to contact their representatives to force new laws against such practices by the credit card companies. If they get enough complaints they will be forced to do something.

People can also check the internet for ratings on the best credit cards available then transfer their balances and tell Discover and other banks doing this practice to go to hell. They will destroy themselves from their greed as they lose even more money as people leave them in droves.

What gets me is now stupid these companies are. The average card holder is paying hundreds of dollars in interest each month. So they screw people over to charge a $19 late fee. If the person gets pissed off and leaves they lose those hundreds a month in interest. If they were smart they would be doing everything they could to keep their customers happy and around by treating them fairly rather than screwing them for the quick buck. So send the card companies a message and move on.
