Post subject: Fleet Credit Card is the Worst!

We answered an ad for a low, 3% credit card from a company called
"Advanta". Within 4 months they sold our account to Fleet Credit Card
Services and it became a 27% rate. We have been charged $60. a month in
fees on a $3,000 balance. We took out another loan to pay them off, and
they charged us $300. service charge for that. Avoid this company at
all costs.

My wife had a similar (except even worse) experience with Advanta selling an account to Fleet. Take Bill's advice, and stay away from Advanta and Fleet.

Here Here!

We had a Crestar Visa for years at 13%, which was sold to Fleet. They subsequently raised our interest rate to 27.99% and 28% on cash advances. So much for customer loyalty. My advice is to dump Fleet and don't ever go back -- regardless of their tricky offers.
