Overcharged

I had gotten this card one month prior to my wedding in so I've had it about 2 years now. I just seen a few short weeks ago that my credit limit was reduced on this card from $7000 to $3600 and without notice! Aren't they required by federal law to notify the customer of impending changes to a credit limit/interest BEFORE they actually do it? This is an outrage! This all began about two statements ago I noticed that HSBC reduced my cash advance limit from $3500 to $1300, first. I wondered why that was? Then the last statement I received I saw the credit limit reduction and my mouth just dropped. This puts me about $400 shy of maxing out my credit card! I am so angered by this because I've worked very hard to get my FICO score just in the high 600's. (I used to have bad credit, so this is a BIG deal for me). Now it's messed up again. My husband and I can forget about refinancing our house for while because of these idiots. Once this card is paid off, I will NEVER do business with HSBC ever again - if they are even in business a year from now.
