As many of are aware that there is a national movement to curb-in the credit card companies tricky practices to get money from customers who do not deserve to be ripped off.

Case in point:

Credit One Bank recently included a charge on my statement in the amount of $72.21, which is NOT a purchase that I made.

When I called in to question the item the first number kept me on “hold” for thirty (30) minutes without answering. I then called the number listed for service from the card company. The person who spoke to me told me that I had to take a convoluted route, by mail, to correct the problem.

Meanwhile I have to sit here gritting my teeth.
