Walt Svirsky - I am writing today to discuss outright THIEVERY by Diner's Club & Citibank. These dirty rat b*tards have ripped me off for the last time and if I spend the rest of my days blogging about it, well that just might be therapeutic.
I was hospitalized with a life threatening infection last year. While fighting for my life - and accumulating 100's of thou$ands of dollars in... Medical bills - there were 2 occasions where my payments were 2 DAYS LATE. Of course, I paid the late fees and the service charges.
After 7 years with Diners Club I had accumulated 119,000 rewards points (redeemable for gifts or airline miles). After being 2 DAYS LATE for the second time, they closed my account and forced me to pay within 60 days to avaoid collection. OK, no problem, screw you very much.
Now, they have STOLEN my rewards points. After telling me I had until September 30 to transfer the points (why is there a time limit at all... Anyone?) I called today to transfer and they tell me my deadline was September 12th. I'm really broiling here. This is outright theft. I will scream it from the hilltops of West Virginia, from the ocean beaches of Astoria, from the very swamps of Miami Vice.
