We have not charged any expense on a credit card since taking FPU. During the class we dumped $17,000+ in debt. We continue to work at getting TOTALLY out of debt and have about 2 years to go. It is a FANTASTIC program -- you can do anything you put your mind too! We went through FPU over 3 years ago. We have not charged any expense on a credit card since taking FPU.

I wish the Credit Card companies would be "stand up guys" and do the right thing without the government having to make them. Thanks for that info Dan.

Those new laws started phasing in today. As part of that set of laws, starting next year, the credit card companies will be forced to apply payments to the higher interest items first.
