Got this in an email today - The new freemans card is nothing short of shocking! :mad:

39.9%!!!!!!!!! The bloke must be in the picture to order it for her whilst she sleeps, because I cant see any other reason for her to order one!

I never heard of this card before. Is it aimed at sub-prime?0

Seems they have changed their mind about the APR... or are just very confused:

I applied for one, and on the credit agreement it says they have 5 tiers, the lowest is 19.9%, and the highest is 59.9%!_________________________________________

Then don’t apply for it! The card is aimed at the sub-prime market; you clearly have a good credit rating so stick to the main stream cards like MBNA et al.
A welcome addition to the sub prime range of cards for people getting back on their feet.Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.0 -
