> 1.75% limited of time offer makes me want to vomit. So Amzn should offer a lower rate, free perhaps? Or are they hiding fees somewhere else? Please you expla

  It's temporary - they're making it seem like it's lower than it is. They're going to lock people in and then jack up the rate - it's classic CC processing trick and it's BULLSHIT. Even if the real price is written somewhere, it's still horseshit.

    Can you name a significant number of instances where Amazon has not lowered prices over a medium to long term period? Amazon has consistently made things inexpensive for the consumer. Sometimes even taking losses to ensure that customers get a lower price.

      This is my point - y'all aren't even reading what Amazon is saying! They're LITERALLY going to raise the price to 2.5% - it's on the page! It's actually spelled out "we are going to raise our prices".

    You are locked in at the rate if you get in before Jan 2016. I don't see anything wrong with that. It's promotional marketing to catch up to other players.

      That's a legitimate opinion - but it's how the game has been played for in the CC world for a while. There's huge lock in to these providers and they know they'll get'm for years at a higher rate, and the merchants won't really be able to do much about it. It sucks.
