Hi!
I just wondered if anyone knew of a website that had examples of letters that you could use to send to credit card companies to ask them if they would consider reducing your interest rate?
I don't even know if credit card companies do this sort of thing, but I wondered if it is done by other people if there was some sort of example or template that I might be able to use to try this out myself.
Thank you to anyone who can help.

Hi Zeddy,
Do any of your credit cards have zero balances? If so you may be able to negotiate a lower rate if you tell them you are closing your account. It worked for me with Barclaycard, I just phoned them up and told them I wanted to close and they put me through to customer loyalty who reduced my rate straight away.Mortgage-free wannabe!0
