Lies My Credit Card Company Told Me

"You have an excellent payment history with us, Mr. Schwartz."

I think if I was to ask my CC company for anything they would laugh rudely and perhaps fart in my general direction.

I foolishly tried to get enough of a credit limit that I could pay for something big, if need be, while in Italy. The card with a $700 limit that I'd never let be paid late or go over the limit, it wouldn't give me a cent more. Does that make sense? Luckily I had a card that was being paid off from a high balance that had a ridiculous limit, so it came along instead. I think the moral of the story is 'be carefully extravagant."
