Business & Finance - 2 October 2006

I have two credit card accounts from the same company. The first I've had since 2000. The second I've had since 2005. They both currently have the same limit but the older one has a higher interest rate than the newer has. I am not carrying a balance on the old card. What course of action is best? Cancelling the older account w the higher interest rate but with the longer history or the newer one with a shorter history but lower interest rate? Thanks for the advice.

I've paid off a credit card and don't plan on using it any longer. The credit company is sending me mailings about how they are decreasing my credit limit and crap because of "deliquency" and other things but I have not used the card in over 7 months and there is no activity on my account. They are pissing me off and I just want them out of my hair at this point.

a company I have never heard of with a company called National Arbitration Forum. Never received a notice to appear, but had received something months ago from this company saying they were going to take action. I tried calling them, but couldn't get a live person. I thought it was a scam, because the voice mail wanted my phone number & social security number, which I was reluctant to give without knowing what is was about. The amount was for considerably less than is now showing on the award letter, also, they state I agreed in January to have it arbitrated, which I NEVER did. Heck, I don't even know what this about. Can anyone help me? The letter is dated August 23 2006, but I just recieved it. The company information gives a phone number, again, no live person to talk to, they want your phone number to call you back, which I don't want to give, without more info. Anybody know whats going on & what I should do? I own my own home, have no job, no credit & can't pay this.HELP

This summer I signed a 12 month apartment lease with my cousin.We agreed to split the rent & bills. There weren't any problems until his girlfriend moved in. I never stayed there, so I let it slide. This month another one of my cousin's asked both of us if she could stay in my room for a short time & everyone agreed that would be fine. They had a disagreement and now everyone has moved out and refuses to pay rent. I'm left to pay everything & I've been informed that I don't have many legal rights. I'm screwed until I find a new roommate.

My cousin took the keys when he moved out, but he still uses this address for his mail. He has not returned my calls and refuses to pay rent/bills. I called him twice to ask what was going on and he told my grandmother if I keep harassing him, he'll call the police. He did the same with a friend, who he bought a car with. He refused to give him any profit when he sold it & then broke contact. What can I do? Can I change the locks? Any advice?
