Advanta Bank
Overcharged

Business & Finance

I was also a victim of this highly unethical Bank that offers a low start rate, claiming it will last much longer and then raises the rate 10 fold. My initial rate was 2.99 and raised to 27.18. I have perfect credit and have never paid any payments late. I was told I had been pre notified by mail (never was) and had the option to opt out? Now I'm stuck with payments multiple times higher that initially promised. This is a great example of why banks cannot be trusted and should be highly regulated. I would advise to close any accounts with this company, payoff or transfer to another company.

Where is the Congressional action that had been promised for this blatant consumer abuse?
