Amex Credit card department,
I opened a " charge card '' with - -. The deal is you pay an annual fee, but there is no interest on the account at all because you are required to pay it in full every month. I love this because I do not want to support the credit card industry since it is so vicious and gets people in debt. I myself have never had any debts problems before, but in general do n't like the idea of debt or other people having debt. I thought this " charge card '' was a novel idea and the middle ground between a debit card and credit card. Well after having the " charge card '' for a little over 2 months they add a " Pay it Later '' option which is effectively making it a credit card. Why does this company ruin a good thing? A charge card should be a charge card and a credit card a credit card. I feel deceived that the account I opened and was happy to be forced to pay in full is now encouraged me to Pay It Later and is just another credit card. Completely twisting what the charge card is.
