Good morning

In these hard economic times, make sure you go over your credit card statements very closely; I am guilty of not doing this and as a result I have over $1200 in fraudulent charges on my Chase credit card.

I have to admit I never really looked closely at things and I have always paid my bill online and since my contract is ending this Friday and I don't have another one - yet, I have to dig into my savings and wait for my severance pay and beg my fiance to help me during my time in need.

I noticed all these charges on my credit card that listed TLG* GREAT FUN and Services and Merchandise and another one for RESERVATION REWARDS that was being billed to my credit card for over a whole year and I did not know it.

I know I am getting old, and need to wear my glasses a little bit more often but dang....I calculated all the charges and they are a little over $1200 dollars, so Chase canceled my credit card and is sending my out another one; also I accumulated interest charges on these fraudulent charges too, so I am going to ask Chase to reimburse me back that interest also.

Hope everyone is doing great!

Hello.....Verizon and cell phone companies are notorious for ripping you off and nickle and dimming folks! Yep I have been ripped off by them too, if you don't look very very carefully they will have all these miscellaneous charges on your bill, they add up and a lot of folks don't really notice very small charges....good for you!

chile - I am like one of those nekkid ***** hoes in New Jack City counting crack rocks when it comes to my accounts.

A mofo can't jack me for a PENNY and get away with it! I literally check EVERY one of my accounts online EVERY morning AND I pull my credit report for ALL three bureaus quarterly.

Steal my ID if you WANT to - apply for something and watch them mofos ask you for a payment......

I recently was refunded $200 for charges Verizon imposed against my account over the last year.  It depends on the cust serv rep.
