The Cat Who Ate Chase Bank.

CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE

Perhaps I am letting the cat out of the bag a bit too early, but I now have enough pictures for my "The Cat Who Ate Chase Bank" photo book. This will be my first book, so it may still take another 2 months before it is written, put into book format, and then actually test printed.

I want to announce it now so those of you who visit this site might consider buying The Cat Who Ate Chase Bank as a Holiday Gift this year. The book will feature pictures, captions, and information about all of the reprehensible things Chase Bank is doing to domineer customers who have spent their lives building up solid customer credit histories.

I believe Chase Bank thinks there is not a thing you can do in response to their narcissistic attitude and financial actions that have actually endangered people's living arrangements, and even their health, from the added stress Chase Bank's "me first" attitude has caused.

But the "Cat who Ate Chase Bank" is just a first step. Also in the works are T-Shirts, headbands, wristbands and sashes with the catch phrase "Chase Bank is Dead to Me". Domain names have already been purchased for both the book title and the slogan.

Luckily for Chase, I HAVE NO MONEY to start this venture, other than a few hundred dollars. It may take up to a full year to get this venture really going, but I think it could finally become chic to actually "rage against the machine".

I am treating this entire venture as a for profit venture. (Imagine if I lost money on each transaction, that would not be smart.) However, I will try and bring every product to market at the best price while also having the products made in america.

I'm a but unsure as to whether I want to handle all the book sale transactions myself. I calculate I would have to sell at least 15-25 books a day to make it worth my while, yet the time to ship 25 books every day might take too many hours away from my ongoing research, blogging, and robot videos that are also being planned.

Maybe you can buy one for your local credit union, or even another nationwide bank so they can put it out where their own customers can see it. I am pretty sure that Wells Fargo Bank might get a chuckle out of the book and want to make sure that their own customers see it.

If I thought for a moment that Chase Bank was no different from any other bank, I would NOT have bothered with my blogs, this book, or the slogan. It is specifically because Chase Bank has broken the boundaries of decency with their actions towards customers WHO HAVE EARNED THE RESPECT of the entire banking industry with their decade or longer of solid credit history that has motivated me to move forward with my plans to make sure no other bank ever takes the path that Chase Bank has chosen to take, now.

I would like you all to start thinking about buying a dozen of these books, INSTEAD OF CD'S, or DVD's, or going to a rock concert, or even a ball game. Think about giving these books out this holiday season to help spread the word about how horrible Chase Bank is.

Lets start spending money amongst ourselves, and boycott the celebrities, the always striking or threatening to strike super millionaire sports stars, the over priced movies, overpriced live events.

Consider buying "The Cat Who Ate Chase Bank" versus buying anything that generates money for the famous, the wealthy, the celebs, all who have IGNORED THE AGGRESSION CHASE BANK has chosen to generate against their very own customers.

Ideally, being able to sell the books in lots of 12 would make the whole venture run smoother, and if I can get the price down low enough, may even save you money come this holiday season. 12 books could prove much less costly then buying 12 separate gifts.

If not now, then when do we say enough is enough when a bank as terrible as Chase Bank is allowed to do pretty much whatever it wants against their most responsible customers.

REVIEWING WHAT IS EVIL ABOUT CHASE BANK'S 150% INCREASE in the MONTHLY MINIMUM PAYMENT.

What Chase Bank is not saying is that the "one-two percent" that they are blindsiding with a 150% increase in the monthly minimum payment are a million to two million of their most trustworthy, reliable customers who were never late making their payments AND were benefiting from a low interest, life of the loan interest rate!

Chase bank appears to be trying to default their most reliable and trustworthy customers by raising the monthly minimum payment on them by an additional 150% because Chase Bank wins no matter what happens next.

What makes the situation completely unacceptable is that Chase Bank is NOT ALLOWING THESE OVER ONE MILLION VICTIMS STRONG to OPT OUT of the change in terms to their pre-existing agreement.

If these one million plus blind sided, previously never late paying Chase Bank customers pay the additional 150% increase in the monthly minimum payment requirement, Chase Bank saves a ton of money by accelerating the pay down on these low interest, life of the loan interest rates, a move that has been aptly labeled bait and switch by an LA Times Headlines.

If these one million Chase Bank customers cannot afford the new 150% higher monthly payment requirement. they will default on the special low interest rate, life of the loan account, the interest rate jumping from 3.99-5.99 percent to as high as 29.99%, and their credit rating will be affected as well.

The other point that NOBODY MAKES is that other credit card companies HAVE NOT raised their monthly minimum payment requirements, and if they do, they will MOST LIKELY OFFER AN OPT OUT OPTION TO THEIR CUSTOMERS, whereas CHASE BANK DID NOT!

If Chase Bank succeeds in raising their monthly minimum payment by 150%, they are basically jumping their payback requirements ahead of all the other banks. This then makes the other banks look bad to their investors and literally forces them to do the same thing. If Chase Bank demands a bigger cut of the monthly minimum payment pie, why shouldn't all the other banking boards do the same thing to customers cannot afford it?

I am actually for higher minimum payments, as long as they are done when someone gets their first credit card, not after they have built up debt under the 2% monthly minimum rule and are using the low interest rate card to pay down that particular bill while paying down higher interest rate cards first, which is EXACTLY how Chase Bank marketed the discount offer to ALL OF THESE CUSTOMERS they are now blind siding.

If Chase Bank succeeds in raising the monthly minimum payment by 150%, consumers will have LESS AVAILABLE MONEY every month to pay other higher interest debts. Chase Bank's demand also suctions much needed money from local economies as people will have absolutely no additional money to spend, even on basic necessisities.

When these consumers credit rating is lowered for defaulting on these Chase bank accounts, they will be paying higher interest rates in the future as well, resulting in less money every month for the local economy.

EVERYBODY is watching to see if Chase Bank succeeds with their "me first, screw everybody else" mind think. Read the consumer affairs dot org link to see how Chase Bank is devastating over a million people come August 2009.

LOOK AT HOW FAR CHASE BANK HAS FALLEN.

WARNING, this link is for a Chase Bank Ad. I just want to highlight how far Chase Bank has fallen. Once again, Chase Bank is enticing people to sign up for a NEW CREDIT CARD and INTRODUCTORY ZERO interest rates even as they continue to STAIN and DEFAULT the good name of hundreds of thousands of their best customers. Chase Bank is INCREASING the MONTHLY MINIMUM PAYMENT BY 150% ABOVE and BEYOND what THEIR NEVER LATE PAYING CUSTOMERS WILL BE FORCED TO PAY.

What is even sadder is that right in the ad it says that the length of time one gets the zero percent rate will depend on their credit rank. Huh? Chase Bank is going to tell someone they have stinky credit even as they give them a credit card??? Yet Chase Bank is scolding other established customers who have never been late on their payments by raising their monthly minimum payment to the point where they will default?

Who are these Chase Bank clowns and why are they not in jail or at least charged with treason against law abiding U.S. Citizens? Is Chase Bank reaping greater profits by defaulting their own customers then they are by just being a good, upstanding bank?

DAY-25 CHASE BANK PROTEST. I COULD NOT PROTEST TODAY. HAD TO GIVE OUR DOG A REALLY LONG BATH, HOWEVER...

CHASE OR MY CUTE FACE, CLICK HERE TO SEE ME EVEN LARGER.

I spent from 2:30am to 7:00am resizing  my Daily-Protest.com Blog. I first spent a couple of hours meticulously strategizing the proper width of each column and the middle column as well. I then had to resize every photo in the main column and in the far left column as well.

Should I really say I did not protest today when I spent five hours making this blog more presentable for those who check it out?  

I also spent the afternoon caretaking our 13 year old shitszu. My time was spent cleaning her eyes, trimming back the hair from in front of her eyes, then a really long bath. I don't do the pour water over the dog routine. I actually keep our dog in a metal tub with lukewarm water so she is immersed completely except for her back and head.

She actually looks pretty good right now. However, within a day or two the itching will start again, followed by the bleeding. I hope she isn't suffering.   

Doesn't she look good right now for 13 x 7 years, which equals 91 in human years. Kind of odd how I am leading a credit card revolution but I have to take time out for our dog. I also reinforced my Chase, Keep Your Word sign. It is really large and has developed some creases that make the sign bend in two whenever the wind blows.

So today was a reload day, hopefully tomorrow will be an on the street Chase Bank protest day.

DAY-23, CHASE BANK PROTEST. BACK to VENTURA BLVD. and TOPANGA CANYON. MY ORIGINAL CHASE BANK PROTEST SIGN REALLY GETS NOTICED.

CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE.

Today I discovered that my original "Chase, Keep your Word" sign gets more attention at the same location than my more "mobile" protest signs that I had used yesterday. People came up to me to ask what was going on. I think if I stay at this location for a few more days that more and more people will ask what is going on, or check out the website, and get involved.

I think what is starting to happen is that people who actually turn into the large parking lot on a daily basis will take the time to walk up to me and learn more, at least that is what happened today.

When people ask what is going on, I quickly mention the 250% increase in the monthly minimum payment, and that there is no opt out option. It is the no opt out aspect that usually makes people shake their heads in disbelief. They can't believe that in a civilized society of rules and laws that banks can change terms, and not allow the customer any say in the matter. 

People on the streets are turning out to be more reasonable, thoughtful, and fair, then the entire boardroom of Chase Bank.

When I next mention to those who stop by that AMEX, CitiBank, and American Airlines are conspiring to steal frequent flyer miles from AMEX customers so Citibank can trade them for better loan terms with American Airlines, people just can't believe that our government would let them down this way.  

Meanwhile Chase bank continues to run commercials around the clock on California television announcing their arrival in our state as if they have come to save us. GUFFAW! Chase Bank's advertising is possibly making the local television stations reluctant to publicize our growing revolt against Chase Bank and their credit card division for fear of losing their advertising dollars in this tight economy.
