You can learn about how to be interviewed for a story about the credit card industry IF you live near the Washington DC area.

Actually, I think you should accept a small monetary remuneration if you can bold my three links on the right column. I would MUCH RATHER spend money with someone I KNOW AND TRUST then with Chase Bank.

I would much rather donate money here than buy a CD from a celebrity who is clueless about the pain Chase bank is causing, or is to selfish to say anything.

NOT ONE CELEBRITY has spoken out against Chase Bank, and that is something we should all mull over the next time we stand in line to pay our money to a celebrity of any kind.

It May Be Time to Find a New Credit Card

I would be VERY CAREFUL and THINK TWICE about confiding personal financial information to any banking institutions at this time of economic woe, unless there was absolutely no other alternative.

I have been reading on other Chase complaint sites that Chase had led some people to believe they have made some sort of a favorable deal over the telephone. Unfortunately, the written deal is not always what they were led to believe it would be. Sometimes there are slight differences, other times the customers are told that they do not qualify, after all.

Please visit the CNNMoney site mentioned in post #12 and read comment #187 by Emily from New Orleans, for an example. It is just heart wrenching.

For any small business owners that are relying on credit, be doubly careful. Please read this article, “Think Twice Before Discussing Financial Troubles with Your Bank” at the following link:

Could there be some more class-action lawsuits brewing? Clearly nobody at Chase is worried about bad karma.

How’s the wife?

You cannot link to Facebook pages from outside of Facebook, unlike MySpace. You have to be logged in as a user to access any Facebook sites. However, as I said before, Facebook is easy to use. It would be quite simple to set up a ChangeInTerms Facebook site.

On a different topic, if anybody had any doubts that Chase bank might be “ethically challenged” please check out this link:

http://www.nlpc.org/stories/2009/08/10/acorn-funder-jpmorgan-chase-doesn%E2%80%99t-look-good-new-madoff-book

The article is titled, “ACORN Funder JPMorgan Chase Doesn’t Look Good in New Madoff Book”. Need I say more?

Regarding #16.

Would you be willing to email me a list of links to FaceBook pages that are protesting Chase? When I add links to this site, under a “Category” (such as Correspondence or Chase Class Action Lawsuits, or Recent Posts), I have to fill out 3 fields for each link that I add, beneath the respective category:

Name

Actual URL

Description (room for about a sentence or two; if I use it directly from a site, I always put it in quotes).

If I had at least five to ten of the FaceBook protest sites, I would create a Category entitled:

FaceBook Pages Protesting Chase

(If anyone wants to help, “M,” please do!)

I would suggest that anyone considering the 2% plan to visit the following website and read the comments

http://credit.about.com/b/2009/06/26/chase-increases-minimum-payment-on-credit-card-balances.htm

Recent comments indicate that the plan may not be what it seems. However, if you are interested, here is the process:

I have been debating whether to take this plan, but like many others, I don’t trust Chase not to renege on the offer, after damaging my credit rating by closing my accounts. The devil in me makes me want to keep the accounts open, since I suspect they want me to close them. Otherwise, I would cancel my accounts in a heartbeat. Who in their right mind would ever choose to do business with Chase, after this abuse?

Incidentally, don’t think for an instant that Chase is offering any “deals” with anything but its own interest in mind. Be careful walking through the Chase minefield!
