Please move if this is the wrong forum.....thanks
FWIT... a call just lowered it to 9.99%
Coincidentally, I called Amex yesterday regarding my APR, and they lowered mine to 9.99% as well. My Marriott Visa is also at 9.99%. I called to have my Chase Continental MC lowered, but the best they could do is 13.99%.

Yet another reason to cancel that useless card.
