true.
this is my debit card though. i guess i should contact mastercard.
from talking to family and friends the past couple of hours it looks like this is one of those sneaky fine print things that a credit card company will try to sneak in.
My dad for example; said that he had a similar situation arise because he did not check a little box on a credit card application that said "NO do not sign me up for the discount shopper option and privacy protection plan"
he called and cancelled those two services and the charges stopped coming every month.
i think thats what i have a case of.
at any rate... my credit card debt is very low... in fact nearly paid off.
My bank account comes with a free save deposit box. tomorrow im taking all but one credit card (including my debit cards) and placing them into a safe deposit box for the next 6 months.
at the end of that 6 month period i will be reviewing my account statements with my wife to see how much money we saved versus last year (by not doing the whole stop and shop / go out for a quick cheap dinner thing)
will be interesting
