They are nothing but LIARS. They tack on all sorts of fees to the card and paying the minimum or even half of the card balance isn't good enough for them. They will just close your account after a couple of times of you only paying half the card balance, report you to the credit bureaus as "delinquent" and send 10 different debt collectors after you. I'm not kidding about this. There is NO negotiating with them. It's either you pay the card in full or you will be paying through the nose with their miscellaneous fees. I wouldn't recommend Chase to a dog for Christ sakes. Don't get a card with Chase and certainly DO NOT open a bank account with Chase. You will be SORRY beyond belief if you have an account with Chase. Chase will close your bank account without warning if you don't keep more than $12 in it at any given time. $12 that goes towards their "monthly service fee". And after they close your bank account, your name gets listed in Chex System and you have NO choice but to get a second chance checking account. There is NO way of getting your name out of the Chex System. If you have an account with Chase, CLOSE IT NOW. DO NOT WAIT. DO NOT PATRONIZE THEM. Don't patronize businesses that practice deceptive tactics. I will HATE Chase forever and a day. I don't want anyone to go through what I went through with Chase. It's mind blowing the way they operate. Chase can take their cards and SHOVE IT where the sun don’t shine. They are nothing but LIARS.

I think about 1 out 20 web design grads have a semi-good skill set. Most just know Flash and Photoshop...they don't get enough 'old school' training in basic layout and just want to make 'cool' stuff. An article about finding the right online degree program would certainly help someone out there. E-mail comment from Randy Z.:
