Hard-to-Believe Credit Card Rates

Blog Post Date: Nov 21 2006

Universal Default Practice

I got this definition from the sites below:

universal default practice
WIKIPEDIA - Universal default is the term for a practice in the financial services industry for a particular lender to change the terms of a loan from the normal terms to the default terms (i.e. the terms and rates given to those who have missed payments on a loan) when that lender is informed that their customer has defaulted with another lender, even though the customer has not defaulted with the first lender.

The growing use of this technique is one of the most controversial trends in the financial services industry.
universal default credit cards
You may not be aware of it, but the credit card companies are watching you. Even if you already knew this, they are probably watching more closely than you think.

In addition to watching your every move on their product, they are also watching when you pay your bills, whether or not you apply for other credit cards, and whether or not your credit score has dropped. And if they don't like what they see, they can raise your interest rate without your knowledge.

The practice is called Universal Default. Basically, it means that if you pay any bill late, even your phone bill, your credit card company can raise your interest rate. In fact, they can raise the interest rate up to almost 30%. They can do this even if you have a perfect payment history with them. Credit card companies do this because they now see you as a risk. Higher risks equal higher interest rates.
Hard-to-Believe Credit Card Rates- universal default
MSNBC - I've read plenty of times about how credit card companies routinely charge many borrowers as much as 30% interest or more per year. I even reported on it. In that article, I explained a practice known as "universal default," which can get you whacked with sky-high interest rates on many or most of your cards if you're late paying just one bill. And the default typically kicks in without your receiving any notification about it.

I spent some time reviewing Stephan Ducharmes www.moneyhome.com - 1 million visitors
Stephan Ducharme also runs www.freeadguru.com - Stephan ducharme free ad guru

There seem to be quite a few high pressure ads and mostly negative reviews when I research this product.

I found these reviews
1 million visitor review - stephan ducharme

Stephan Ducharme Review on Alexa

The question is: it looks like he's getting some reasonable traffic to his site. Is anybody who is working with his systems getting the results that he asked for?

Sometimes people who write negative reviews are those who are competitors, or lazy people don't want to spend the time working systems.

Have you had success with Stephan Ducharme's systems. Do you know anybody who's had success with his systems?

Personally I've been on the internet for a few years. Getting a million hits by just working the FREE methods to get traffic is a huge amount of work. My impression is that you'd have to hire people to work enough free systems to get that much traffic. All of a sudden, that's not free any more!

I'm interested to hear from anybody who has used Stephan Ducharme's system and had no success with it or good success with it.

Along with our reciprocal links exchange and banner exchange, we thought we should add some products for our subscribers to help them learn more about about marketing their websites.

The Store is where you can find website marketing books

There is a lot of information on the internet about website marketing and marketing your business. These Self-Counsel Press self help marketing books are good to help your fundamental knowledge about marketing.

Before you can market on the internet, it's really important to know marketing in general. Marketing is not just about building a website and then hoping it sells something. There are hours and hours of research and trial and testing to be able to successfully service your clients.

Thus, if you're a programmer by nature, and you're really good at programming websites, it is a really good idea to study the fundamentals of marketing. Marketing self help books will give you more ideas on how to market your products so that you get a stronger return on your time and money investment.

I recommend these Self-Counsel Press self help books as marketing self help aids. The more you learn about marketing, the better you will do and the more money you will make.
