    Post ‘Flabbergasted': Chase Bank forgives all credit card debt for Canadian customers

    ‘Flabbergasted': Chase Bank forgives all credit card debt for Canadian customers. Chase must really have wanted to escape Canadian regulation?

    Cheaper to take the hit, which they might be able to write off a portion of, then to comply with regulations? Lucky Canadian customers! Now lets wait and watch if they jack fees and interest rates on US customers to help off-set....

    If that last part comes to be, it won't get me in the wallet as I carry no revolving debt on principal. Credit Cards are an emergency money source or used for convenience on vacation for me. I like the purchaser protection they add when you're ripped-off by a vendor too.

    But some people are good at borrowing within means and paying it off profitably. THose who don't are limiting the choices of those who do.
