A few weeks ago I paid off and canceled all of my amex personal credit cards. The csr was cold, distant and unsympathetic.
Strangely towards the end of the conversation, he asked to verify my address and then hung up!
WELL!
Three days later I mysteriously found my pet turtle on the porch of my front yard - on its back - DEAD!!!!
Coincidence???
I DON'T THINK SO!
Keep a close eye on your pets!!!

I think that AMEX rep had seen the godfather too many times... At least it wasn't your pet horse's head in your bed.

There most certainly has to be more to this story. Now I'm beginning to think there is something beyond the initials AMEX. It is a codeword.
We need to investigate.

The evil behavior began here:
05.30.2000, 15:34
Latwanna
they killed my puppy
Can you sue a credit card company for possibly killing your pet out of revenge because you reported them to the FTC? About seven days ago I sent a letter to the FTC complaining that I was being harassed by a major big name credit card company who wanted to know why I stopped making payments on my credit card. They already have a $200 deposit and I have charged alot making them alot of interest. Right now the balance is only $2098.14 but they act like it's a million dollars. Well now I am having a hard time paying and besides the credit card is not even in my name but in my daughter's name. She is a minor so legally they cannot even enforce the contract. When I told that to the person on the phone she said that I would go to jail if I was reported so I must make full payment immediately by FederalExpress Overnight. I totally panicked and my neighbor told me about the FTC and we called the local police to make a report. Now I get from shopping and I found my dog Toby dead on the front porch. Is this a coincidence? I don't think so. I am making another police report so if that company is spying on me you better not even think about it. I have also notified HUD because my property rights were violated and they had no business coming onto my yard no ways.

You did read your account agreement, right?
Man, I am tired of consumers who don't read their cardholder agreement then act all surprised and stuff when they come for the liver.
