Please, what they regret is they couldn't continue to charge him all those ridiculous fees and high interest rates. They wanted him to reconsider being screwed out of hard earned money month after month. What they enjoyed was the opportunity to take our money. No thank you.
We have since made drastic changes to our finances. One of those is the decision to never use credit again. We've never had a problem since and it works for us.
So banks, no thank you, we choose not to be your slaves.

We have 1 credit card, but it gets paid off every month. We use it for online purchases, reservations, and such because they have a little more fraud protection than our debit cards has. Banks do that though, they want us to remain in their debt. We had to be careful to wait until May to pay off my car rather than April so we wouldn't get a penalty for paying it off in less than a year. Actually it took almost two years to pay it off, but we refinanced for a better rate after about seven months.
Anyway, the point is, we would have incurred penalty fees had we paid it off any earlier because the bank would prefer our interest.
I don't have a credit card either. Hubz has one that he uses for business and pays it off every month then when he does his expenses we get paid back. credit cards are such a scam. If you can't afford it don't buy it. simple.
