Participantthe powers see Chrysler as another Bear and GM as Lehman. They feel the system cannot take another “Lehman” level event–and they are probably right. Yeah, yeah, the system is crap, bla bla bla, it deserves to die. The point is that letting Lehman go was a disaster and they will do ANYTHING to prevent another Lehman.

ParticipantI set up a (smallish) CD online, I was impressed with their web operations and how easy it was, I have not spoken to a single person and I got my signature cards in the mail. As to the high rates, yes, it is moral hazard and they are overpaying for deposits right now. I fully expect them to go under.

ParticipantFirst, its just fearmongering, the lenders want their 2.2% merchant fees, so even if every reward program disappeared today, in 5 years they’d all be back. Also, I don’t really understand the vitriol, the CC lender is extending (temporary) credit to you, if you don’t like the terms then don’t use them.
I’d probably pay an annual fee just for the protection; I got stiffed for $10K from a “vendor” (they actually wrote me an email, ‘we are going out of business, sorry’ with a detailed list of what I wasn’t going to get). With that, I signed an affadavit and 4 weeks later I got my money back from the CC. I’m HAPPY to pay an annual premium for an insurance policy like that; all the better if they give it to me free for being a valued customer.
