Habeeb

Seriously??

I applied for a small credit card for emergencies and hotels and such. I knew I shouldn’t have! I cancelled all my cards and cut them up a couple years ago…now I remember why.

I got my FIRST statement today. My first…what did it have on it? An annual fee (GRRRRRR) and a LATE charge. WTF?!

So I decide, eff it, it’s 11pm but this number says 24 hours, I’ll show those crazy suckers.
Wrong.
I got Habeeb. Habeeb is apparently from India. At least he didn’t say his name was Peggy.

Anyway, this guy tells me they aren’t waving fees, blah blah. Then I hit him with, “Dude, I don’t even have your card!!” Yeah, they have never even sent me a card and they are charging me mother-lovin fees!!

At this point he transfers me to Trianca “Alex” who orders me a new card. Now, of course “Alex” can’t handle the late fee…no, she’s just in security. ANOTHER TRANSFER!!

To “Joe” (at least Habeeb was honest about his name) who says she can waive the fee (duh) and accept payment. Alright you slick, curry-filled diva, I’ll bite. I want to pay the balance to ZERO.
I knew this would throw her because she must do ‘murrican math. After taking 10 minutes to subtract $25 (at one point telling me owed somewhere in the neighborhood of $130) I finally held her hand and walked her trough how to add $1.10 to $50. Seriously.

Anyway, bill paid and card sent. This is why I hate credit card companies.
