Warnings of rising credit card interest rates

Credit card companies have now announced that they no interest on their cards on the night and without saying their clients.

The credit card companies have all agreed on a new policy, which means that we should prepare their clients a reasonable amount of time warning of an increase in interest rates in connection with their credit cards. The move came after the government warned that the credit card companies, the Office of Fair Trading as they do not start treating their customers fairly.

The credit card companies are now subject to the reduction of interest rates to their customers. The new agreement signed by the companies that mean that there is no increase in interest rates within 12 months from the store credit card or off. After 12 months, until the company was not in a position to make them more often than once every six months.

When the increase was the customer will be warned at least 30 days before, but given the chance to close their accounts and repay their debts during the current rate if they so wish.

These new agreements that the companies that credit cards will mean that customers who can fight for the management of their finances and debt easier and give them a little more leeway if they find that they are unable to cope.

Since January 2009, the Office of Fair Trade is the credit card companies, regardless of whether they are fairly treated their customers.
