After you address that properly then you can go after Chase or whatever credit card is denying you the proper respect. These rules might seem arbitrary and discriminatory but they are usually come from past problems. So put the blame where it belongs, it is not Continentals fault and making posts like this is extremely bad taste.
It appears to me reading the OP that this has NOTHING to do with past problems or not being responsible. If I am reading this post right the poster has moved here from the UK recently and they are not recognizing his/her international accounts in the FICO (credit score). If I am reading that correctly I do agree there is discrimination, but not on the part of CO. Obviously how the FICO scores are being calculated does not leave room for people with good credit who have decided to live in the US!!!!! So much for the land of opportunity huh!!!!!
