Received an ‘Honorable Mention’ slavery offer.
On the outside of the envelope, in big, bold letters, was the sentence, “WE THINK YOU DESERVE MORE CREDIT!” Additional to that, “You’re pre-qualified!” "No deposit required!"
What kind of credit do I deserve?
According to the slaver, I must deserve credit for stupidity.
Here is their offer:
19.5% Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
31.50% Default APR
$150 Annual Fee
$29 Account Opening Fee
$6.50 Monthly Maintenance Fee ($78 per year)
While there is no ‘deposit’ required, a $20 minimum payment is due BEFORE activating the credit card!
In the fine print (grey, 6 pt font) "Your initial credit limit will be $300 and the following fees will appear on your first statement: Annual Fee of $150, Account Opening Fee of $29, and Monthly Maintenance Fee of $6.50 ($78 per year). After making your initial monthly payment of $20, your available credit will be $134.50.
Let me get this straight: The credit ‘I deserve’ is to pay the slaver $20 so that I can owe the slaver $165.50 for the privilege of borrowing $134.50.
That means, pay $20 to owe $165.50 [plus interest and monthly fees] for the privilege of being a slave, even if the card is never used.
If I accept this offer, I DO DESERVE IT!
