Which one of you woke up this morning and said, "I want to get ripped off!"? I doubt anyone. Apparently though, there are several (thousand/million) out there who don’t mind supporting companies that take your money, then gouge you for more (my beef with Hollywood Video).

There’s a new post at the Bankruptcy Law Network, which if true/confirmed, validates my reasons for despising Bank of America. The post talks about one woman "who did everything right and nothing ‘wrong’", but whose interest rates BofA decided should increase. I hate this kind of action, and it’s these kinds of senseless fees, which made me transfer my account. We started with BofA, but soon discovered they charge a monthly fee (who does that anymore) to have our bank account there. My question is, "isn’t it my money you’re loaning out at semi-extortionist rates, so shouldn’t my account be free anyway?" Well, apparently not at BofA, and apparently not on their credit card accounts either.

I guess, as the author notes, this is just another way to say thank you for giving us 999 gazillion dollars.

BTW: all you gestapo-like credit companies who’ll now blackball me, I’m ready.
