To whom it may concern:

Please cancel my account forthwith. I just received the first statement showing a $59 annual fee. If you think I’m paying $59 a year for a $300 credit line, you’re nuts.

Per terms I will pay any balance in full (less the annual fee) and expect the card to be cancelled immediately.

Please confirm.


Thank you,

(name redacted)

It was only when they offered the small credit limit that it seemed ludicrous.
