I’ve Paid For This Twice Already…

Just when I finally call to request my interest rate lowered

The Consumerist is reporting Capital One raising interest rates for consumers across the board. I haven’t gotten any notices of interest rate increases yet (in fact the only white envelope that I’ve gotten recently from Capital One told me about my interest rate decrease from 10.9% to 9.9%), but that doesn’t mean it is not coming.

Figures. I finally do this and then it becomes immaterial anyway. Heh.

Of course, I might not get an interest rate increase. From reading the comments to the post, it sounds like not everyone who has a Capital One card has had an increase (yet). And also, hopefully I’ll be transferring this balance pretty soon to a more favorable interest rate, so then it won’t matter at all unless I start using it again.

Which I won’t.

But still. If it does increase, this is my favorite ironic financial moment thus far.
