Why is it being done at all?  I don't understand the logic behind it.

you have to read the fine print before agreeing to take a card.

On that note, I also think that fine print should be illegal. Tongue

If you default on a payment, you're a bigger risk to default on your other card's payments, and they would raise your interest rates just as they would if you had missed a payment on their card. I don't see the problem. Charge as much as you can comfortably pay, keep your credit fine, and nothing happens.

After thinking about it, it does actually make sense.  Thanks for the explanation.
