You may have a point...

I received a comment the other day in regards to my post on my dismal attempt at getting my credit card interest rates lowered. The comment indicated as to whether the economy may be to blame for my lack of success. My response: probably.

This is one of the reasons I have not completely given up on this idea. As I indicated in my post I will likely try again once I have paid off more debt. Part of this is due to fact that hopefully the economy will turn around and my credit card people will trust me again.

However, one of the reasons I decided to call was because of the economic situation. I thought, just maybe, that the companies might be willing to toss me a few token percentage points as an incentive for me not to default on the entire balance (not that I would, but they don't know that). I guess I was wrong.

Thanks for the comment.
