Here is a copy of the coyly worded Chase Bank Proviso the Comptroller of the Currency has left in so that Chase Bank can Defile and Default their customers out of their low interest, life of the loan credit agreements that were already in place. I had to cut and paste it as two sections because it started on the end of the first page, third column, and continued on the first column of the next page. There are no words missing between the first part and the second.
This is patently in correct, and I am surprised the Comptroller of the Currency would include this Chase Bank proviso in the credit card reform bill.Paying down 2% of the minimum can in fact pay off a credit card in a timely fashion, it just depends on WHAT THE INTEREST RATE IS! If the interest rate is LOW, then even a 2% monthly minimum payment is PLENTY to pay down the debt in a reasonable amount of time.
There are times where high interest rates enslave a consumer and they can only tread water. Then there are times when a consumer has EARNED a low interest rate offer because of a stellar payment history. LEAVE THESE LOW INTEREST RATE PEOPLE ALONE!
The one million Chase Bank customers that Chase Bank is TARGETING ALL HAVE INTEREST RATES UNDER 6%! RAISING THEIR MONTHLY MINIMUM PAYMENT IS HURTING THEM FINANCIALLY IF THEY HAVE OTHER DEBT AT HIGHER INTEREST RATES.
This is highway robbery being committed by Chase Bank, and the Comptroller of the Currency seems to be aiding and abetting Chase Bank.
If you are hopping made about this wording please call (202) 874-5750 and tell the Community and Consumer Law Division of the Comptroller of the Currency that this section of the credit card reform bill must be changed so that people who are paying off higher credit card interest rate charges don't LOSE MONEY by now having to pay off low interest rate credit cards at a faster rate!
