Cool Re: Credit Cards - Saving Money Tips

Most credit card companies will credit any late fees back if you give them a call-- really, it's that simple! I've had this happen 2 or 3 times to me (once I mistakenly forgot the mail the envelope, the other time it was just slooow to get there).. After 5-10 minutes on the phone they had no problem crediting back the fees..

Also; I didn't see any mention of cash back cards; why not use them? If you are diligent in paying your bills monthly, there's no reason to send a check everytime. You can easily earn 1-5% back on most of your purchases by using your card. Most utility & phone companies accept credit card purchases as well.

You save: time, money, envelopes, and stamps!
