Me and the Credit Card
Me and the Credit Card Company Call Center guy:
Me: I have this 29$ charge on my bill for not paying on time. But I never received the previous bill.
CCCCC guy: Just a moment please.
12 minutes of happy music. I hang in there.
CCCCC guy: This is what happened: long explanation of how it's really my fault.
Me: OK. I do think $29 is a bit steep. If you could remove that charge that would be great. If not, I'd like to cancel this card now.
Pause.
CCCCC guy: Well, we can do that as a one time courtesy. Long explanation of how it really was my fault.
Me: Thanks.
I'm learning.
