I was with a credit card company once that got busted for purposely
processing mailed payments late just so they could charge you a late penalty
and even a higher interest rate if it happened twice in one year.

They did that to me and in the next year I ended up oweing (sp?) several
hundred dollars extra due to penalties and eventual higher interest rate.

Then they got caught and I got a class action lawsuit notice.
The lawyers won the class action lawsuit. They got most of the money and the
actual people that got ripped off got a rock.

I was overcharged several hundred dollars for what they illegally did. My
settlement payment was a check for $0.68 cents. I kid you not. ;0
