Interest on paid off credit card

I logged into my Providian account today, and as suspected, they have charged me interest. That means that I owe another $3.44 to them. I expect to get that paid ASAP, so that I can finally have the debt forever behind me.

Although, yesterday, I did get a pre-approved credit card offer from them. Claiming I could get an introductory purchase APR of 0%, when I transfer a balance now. With a balance transfer APR of 9.99%-23.99%.

I guess now they want my business back. What fools. I would rather get a consolidation loan at prosper.com then with those creeps.

See this morning's post, that I wrote last night and just posted.


Many banks and credit debt companies which have piled up their stocks are expanding their personal and commercial services. On individual level, student loan services are being offered at nominal interest rates. While commercially, banks have really queued up to sell out the merchant accounts combined with a merchant card. Merchant account lets you accept the online payment through credit cards. Such services can now easily be availed through online bank.
