Okay, when I owe a credit card company money, they charge interest. Why

[Deja Q]

when I am owed money from them, they don't charge interest?! :cry:

Okay, silliness ends.

Been 2.5 months now and they're still holding my money. (they said after 2 they'd mail a check, but why 2? Do they accrue interest on it?)

1. Of course they do

Usually the 2 month thing is automatic, but if you call them and request it back they will send you a check then. But than can vary from card to card.

2. The IRS is the same way

If you owe them, they add interest. If they owe you, they don't pay interest.

3. all individuals should declare corporate status

and start billing back to them....

4. Because everything is rigged to work in favor of corporate america

isn't it great?
