The New Credit Card Act of 2009 takes effect on February 22, 2010 To help you prepare, my blog will feature Nine Tips over the next three weeks.
Tip Number Two
Have you ever gone out of town and arrived back home to find out that you have a credit card payment due tomorrow? Like most people, you probably got on the phone, or online, to make the payment because you wanted to pay right away You also probably got charged a nice little fee for not sending a check through the postal service like a good little credit card owner.
With the new Credit Card Act of 2009, you will not be charged a fee to pay your credit card, unless you specifically ask to have your payment expedited (which means that you asked to have it rushed through).
