American Express - Blue — 

I have had the American express credit card for several years. I initially got it because it had a great balance tranfer rate. After I transfered the balance none of the terms they had initially offere were true. Then shortly after having the card they dropped my credit limit down to my balance. I have a credit score of 700 and there was no reason for them to drop my balance like that other then they aren't extending as much credit due to the current economic conditions. Well where I once only held a 30 percent balance on the card now I am maxed out and it is affecting my credit score because they have changed there business plan. To say the least I am very happy with the new legislation that president obama has been pushing through congress. I have not had a good experience with american express. I would not recommend them. They do not keep their word on "pre-approved" offers and they will mess up your credit score for no reason. When you call to complain they will not care.

Sorry to say that it's not just American Express. It's all card issuers. Each and every one of them is doing it. Know how it's going to end? People will just stop sending them payments. I mean they've already trashed your credit rating. It's unsecured debt. What can they do to you? Eat you?
