Dem evil card companies

Pretty good story on the perils of credit cards. Of course I find this out about $5,000 later... lol. (Hear that? That's the sound of pattering feet as potential suitors run away... far away...)

Haha.

Anyways, on a kind of related note I was surprised to find out last month that while I can find the worst garbage from web sites last updated in 1997, I cannot view my bank statement from six months ago. My online RBC account only goes back half a year, and while I can order it takes 3 to 5 business days and yup, costs $5.

I thought this was ludicrous, that while people who are dead broke or given up on hopeless web sites can leave the pages online well into the future that a $47.1 billion company cannot leave something up more than half a year.

Then again, it wouldn't be a $47.1 billion company if it was to let me see that statement, would it now?
