Press Release Summary: Federal law debars issuers from providing you credit cards
without your request. But, issuer can offer or send credit card, renewal or any
other substitute for credit cards without your demand for the credit card.

they can also ask you on phone whether you want the card or not. If your answer is
yes, then an issuer may send one for you.

Federal law safeguards your utilization of credit cards. There are several ways by
which they protect your card and they are:

Refunds of your credit balances: When you pay much more than the whole balance or
want to make return at present, than you can write your provider of credit card for
refund, or you can also maintain the credit card scheduled your account if your
amount is more than $1 than issuer must refund within seven days after receiving

have to send you the refund in any case.

Instant credit for expense: Issuers have to credit your financial credit when they
received the day payment. But the exceptions are always there, in case the payments
are not done as per the requirements of the creditor's, or the holdup in crediting
the financial account will not affect any charge. To assist avoid monetary charges,
just follow the mailing instructions of the issuer. Payments made to any wrong
address could holdup crediting your financial account up to 5 days. If by chance you
lose your envelope of payment than search on the billing statement of your payment
address or else you can also call the credit provider.

Your bill errors: issuers have to follow all the rules and conditions for instantly
correcting errors of bills. When you are going to start your account you will get an
outlining statement of these rules, at least one time in a year. However, many
issuers involve a synopsis of these rules on your receipts. If you detect any
mistake on your receipt of payments, you can quarrel the charge as well as you can
also withhold payment, while the investigation is being completed on the charge. The
error can be made on the payment or on the item that was not delivered as promised.
But you have to pay that part of the bill that is not included in any dispute,
including monetary as well as other charges.


You must write to the issuer about the billing inquiries, in that include you
address, name, explanation of the mistake and your account number. The letter must
arrive at the creditor within in sixty days, after the 1st bill containing mistakes
was sent to you. So make you send fast. The issuer must acknowledge the complaint
made by you in written within thirty days of bills sent to you, unless the trouble
has been set on. The dispute has to be resolved within 2 billing cycles, and should
not cross 90 days.
