No hassles, no ridiculous fees, and we pay the card off every month. I actually just paid off my BOA CC, and cancelled it, so I'm glad I don't have to deal with these new silly fees.

And I've been burned before for not having enough activity on a card -- Chase closed both of my credit card accounts, bastards. Inactivity/not-enough-activity fees are ridiculous.

Same with Baker @ Manvsdebt….he was tired of the credit card companies and the way they treat people, so he's going to cancel his as well called "ill show you where to stick your rewards" http://manvsdebt.com/rewards/

My husband's oldest card is a BOA (formerly NationsBank - hello, 1980s!) that he's had for 25 years...they sent him notification that he'd have a $49/year membership fee beginning his next anniversary (January). He's P-O'd and wants to punch BOA in the face. How does 25 year history of good payments = $49 fee? He's carried balances occassionally, like the $6000 boat motor he HAD to buy 2 years ago - paid it off in 4 mons, so they did make some money off him. Sucks to think he may lose that longest-lived credit line on his bureau Those who pay balances off every month are called "dead beats" in CC company parlance…So here comes the revenue stream from the deadbeat crowd.
