I have done some subsequent research since Advanta did the same to me, by jacking my interest rate up from 10.3% to 35% in August with no notice and no valid reasoning other than they say I no longer meet their lending criteria in today's market conditions.I have an attorney who they also ripped off in the same manner looking for members to file a class action lawsuit against Advanta. We need to make Advanta pay for screwing us over. They cost me at least $600 in extra interest before I got them paid off this week.
Please e-mail me at or advantafighter@yahoo.com and help participate in this lawsuit so Advanta is given the proper justice.
Thanks!
DEC

2. Written by Deb K, on 02-11-2009 15:21 Advanta makes me soooo angry. I have contacted DEC regarding a class action lawsuit, and I have also contacted President Obama and Senator Grassley. If the government can bail out these banks, they should be able to call a stop to these piss poor practices. Starting today, I am going to write to every politician out there that may be able to call for an investigation. Raise the roof, y'all!!!! |

| 4. Written by Mike Floris, on 29-10-2009 17:35 Same story - unjustified increased rate, poor customer service when you call and ask to be given a reason for the increase and 2 small checks that they hope you'd cash, to release them from their screw-up. Please add me to this class action. |

| 8. Written by popmm, on 19-10-2009 11:57 Same thing happened to me. Very small business owner. Got very low rate, never late and always overpaid. Rate jumped to 25% with no explanation. Had to cash in IRA to pay it off or pay astronomical interest! Just got a check for cash back underpayment. Assuming I should not cash that! |

| 10. Written by DrMike, on 09-10-2009 13:28 I have the same story as everyone else. Rate went from 10% to 36% with no reason other than we have reevaluated. I tried to email the listed email but it was sent back undeliverable. |
