Variable Rate Information Your APRs may vary. The rates are determined monthly by adding the Index (described below) and:

6.65% ("Spread") for the Customary APR for credit card purchases.
16.90% ("Spread") for the Cash APR for cash advances, including balance transfers, if applicable, and cash advances made by credit card check.
22.24% ("Spread") for the Default APR.
For each billing cycle, the Index is determined in the month prior to the month in which the billing cycle ends. In that prior month, the highest (U.S.) "Prime Rate" published in the Money Rates Table of The Wall Street Journal is selected (the "Index"). If the Index has changed, the new variable rates will take effect with the billing cycle that ends on or after the first day of the month following the Index change.
Grace Period for Repayment of Balances for Purchases You have 25 days from the date of the periodic statement to avoid a Finance Charge on new credit card purchases, provided you paid your previous balance in full.
Method of Computing Balance for Purchases Average Daily Balance (including new purchases).
Annual Fee $35 per year
Minimum Finance Charge $1.00 for each billing cycle in which a Periodic Finance Charge is payable.
Foreign Transaction Fee Finance Charge 1% of the U.S. dollar amount will apply to transactions made in a foreign currency.

Cash Advance Fee:$5 or 5% on all cash advances, whichever is greater; unless otherwise disclosed. Finance Charges accrue from the date of transaction. Cash advances will be limited. Your cash advance limit is disclosed on your billing statement. Late Payment Fee: The Late Payment Fee will vary based on the amount of your outstanding balance on your Payment Due Date, and will be: $30 if your balance is more than $0 up to and including $1000; or $35 if your balance is greater than $1000. Overlimit Fee: $30. Accessing the full amount or most of your available credit may result in an overlimit fee. Credit Limit Increase (CLI) Fee: If requested and approved, a CLI fee of up to $50% of the CLI may be charged to your Account, depending on your creditworthiness. Closed Account Service Fee: $3.50 per month on closed accounts with a debit balance.

The variable Customary APR will apply to credit card purchases.
The variable Cash APR will apply to cash advances, including balance transfers, if available, and cash advances made by credit card check.
If at any time your Account is subject to the Customary and/or Cash APRs, and you fail to make at least your Minimum Payment in time to be credited to your Account by the Payment Due Date, or your Account exceeds your credit limit, your entire Account balance will increase to the Default APR.
Note: The Orchard Bank Secured MasterCard requires a minimum deposit of $200 for a minimum $200 line of credit. For more information on the Orchard Bank Secured MasterCard, see our Secured Card FAQs.

At our discretion, payments are generally applied to interest, fees, and then principal balances. We apply your payments to lower APR balances before higher APR balances. The application of payments is subject to change at any time, without notice.

INTEREST RATES AND FINANCE CHARGES


Interest Rates
The APRs on your Account are variable rates and are determined by adding a specified amount ("Spread") to an Index (described below). The APR is divided by 365 and rounded to the next highest hundred thousandth of a percentage point to determine your Daily Periodic Rate. The Daily Periodic Rate is used to determine the amount of Periodic Finance Charges (see Finance Charges).

Monthly Index For each billing cycle, the Index is determined in the month prior to the month in which the billing cycle ends. In that prior month, the highest (U.S.) "Prime Rate" published in the Money Rates table of The Wall Street Journal is selected (the "Index"). If the Index has changed, the new variable rates will take effect with the billing cycle that ends on or after the first day of the month following the Index change.

An increase in the Index will increase your applicable Daily Periodic Rates which may increase the Finance Charge due on your Account and may increase the Minimum Payment and Current Payment Due. Each time any APR changes, we will apply it to any existing balances, excluding any fixed rate Promotional or Introductory APR.

Purchase APR Your variable Customary APR applies to credit card purchases. The Daily Periodic Rate is based on 1/365th of the Index plus 6.65% ("Spread"). For example, for billing cycles ending 5/17/07, the rate of FINANCE CHARGE would have been a Daily Periodic Rate of .04082% (corresponding 14.90% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE). The minimum rate of FINANCE CHARGE is a Daily Periodic Rate of .04082% (corresponding 14.90% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE).

Cash APR Your variable Cash APR applies to cash advances, including balance transfers, if available, and cash advances made by credit card check. The Daily Periodic Rate is based on 1/365th of the Index plus 16.90% ("Spread"). For example, for billing cycles ending 5/17/07, the rate of FINANCE CHARGE would have been a Daily Periodic Rate of .06890% (corresponding 25.15% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE). The minimum rate of FINANCE CHARGE is a Daily Periodic Rate of .05726% (corresponding 20.90% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE).

If at any time your Account is subject to the Customary and/or Cash APRs, and you fail to make at least your Minimum Payment in time to be credited to your Account by the Payment Due Date, or your Account exceeds your credit limit, your entire Account balance will increase to the variable Default APR. At our discretion, your Account may return to the Customary APR after five consecutive months of on-time payments of at least the Current Payment Due, without exceeding your credit limit.

Default APR The Daily Periodic Rate for the variable Default APR is based on 1/365th of the Index plus 22.24% ("Spread"). For example, for billing cycles ending 5/17/07, the rate of FINANCE CHARGE would have been a Daily Periodic Rate of .08353% (corresponding 30.49% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE). The minimum rate of FINANCE CHARGE is a Daily Periodic Rate of .08079% (corresponding 29.49% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE).

Finance Charges

Finance Charges are the total of the greater of (a) Minimum Finance Charge, or (b) periodic Finance Charges, and any applicable (c) Cash Advance Fee Finance Charges, (d) Foreign Transaction Fee Finance Charge, (e) Credit Limit Increase Fee Finance Charge, (f) Closed Account Service Fee Finance Charges, and (g) Processing Fee Finance Charge.

(a) Minimum Finance Charge. A Finance Charge that is assessed in lieu of a lesser periodic Finance Charge in any billing cycle in which a periodic Finance Charge is payable. This fee is $1.00.
(b) Periodic Finance Charges. Periodic Finance Charges are computed by multiplying the Average Daily Balance for each category of transactions shown on your statement (e.g., purchases, balance transfers, cash advances) by the applicable Daily Periodic Rate and then multiplying the result by the number of days in the billing cycle. To calculate the Daily Balances, we take the beginning debit balance for each category of transactions each day, add any new transactions, any previous day's periodic Finance Charges, any assessed fees and charges, and subtract any payments and/or credits. If a debit transaction posts after the beginning of your billing cycle, but the transaction occurred prior to the beginning of your billing cycle, the applicable Daily Balance will be adjusted to include the transaction amount and any previous day's periodic Finance Charges for each day the transaction amount was outstanding prior to the beginning of the current billing cycle. Then, for each transaction category, we add the Daily Balances for the billing cycle together and divide the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. This is the Average Daily Balance for each transaction category. (1) Credit Card Purchases. Periodic Finance Charges begin to accrue on the date of the transaction and continue to accrue until payment in full is credited to your Account. However, there is a 25 day Grace Period on new credit card purchases. That means, if the New Balance shown on your last statement is paid in full by the Payment Due Date for that statement, periodic Finance Charges will not be imposed on new credit card purchases, provided the New Balance for the current billing cycle is paid in full by the Payment Due Date for that billing cycle. If, however, the New Balance is not paid in full by the Payment Due Date for the immediately preceding billing cycle, periodic Finance Charges will be incurred on new credit card purchases (i.e., purchases appearing for the first time in the current cycle) from the date of the transaction and on the previously billed but unpaid credit card purchases form the first day of the current cycle.
(2) Cash Advances (including balance transfer and credit card checks). Periodic Finance Charges begin to accrue on the date of the transaction and continue to accrue until payment in full is credited to your Account. There is no Grace Period on cash advances.
Periodic Finance Charges will be calculated using the Daily Periodic Rate in effect on the statement closing date.
(c) Cash Advance Fee Finance Charges. Cash advances include all advances to get cash over the counter, through an ATM, balance transfers (if available), credit card checks, or other "cash-like" transactions (such as purchasing a money order, traveler's check, casino or betting chip, or a lottery ticket) as determined by us. A Finance Charge will be computed on the amount of each cash advance as of the date of the transaction. The Cash Advance Fee FINANCE CHARGE for all cash advances is 5%, subject to a minimum FINANCE CHARGE of $5, unless otherwise disclosed.
(d) Foreign Transaction Fee Finance Charge. A Foreign Transaction Fee FINANCE CHARGE equal to 1% of the U.S. dollar amount is assessed on transactions made in a foreign currency, as of the transaction date.
(e) Credit Limit Increase Fee Finance Charge. If you request and are approved for a credit limit increase ("CLI"), a CLI Fee FINANCE CHARGE of up to 50% of the CLI may be assessed to your Account, depending on your creditworthiness.
(f) Closed Account Service Fee Finance Charge. A $3.50 per month FINANCE CHARGE is assessed to the Account for each billing cycle whenever that Account is closed with a debit balance.

The application of any Finance Charge other than a periodic Finance Charge may cause the APR on the billing statement on which this Finance Charge first appears to exceed the Nominal APR.

ACCOUNT FEES

Annual Fee/Periodic Membership Fee

This fee is $30.

Variable Rate Information Your APRs may vary. The rates are determined


Already. No. Things to look for when getting a card include: no annual fee, low FIXED APR. When I turned 18 I obviously didn't have credit either. So I ended up applying everywhere(which is bad for your credit) and eventually just applied to a credit card offer in the mail(When I was 19). It was a Chase card NO annual fee but the APR was a horrible 19.99% FIXED. I was approved for a $200 or $500 credit limit. Then I got a Cap 1 offer in the mail and thought well "Whats in my wallet?" lol so I was approved for that one at $500 for 19.99 FIXED. (The bad thing about Cap 1 is that they DO NOT report your credit limit, so your credit goes off the highest balance you had on the card.) The only reason I settled for those high rates was because I knew I needed to establish credit and eventually I could get the rates down. Then a year later I applied for a rewards card through my credit union and was approved for $500 at 7.9% FIXED!! So that was awesome. Then my boyfriend had to apply for a SONY card and since we like to see who has better credit I did too. Approved for $2000 at a whopping 14.99%(Not something any reasonable person would sign up for unless you are only using it to get the reward points and pay off the balance every month like we do.) Anyway, I am 21 now and the APR on my cards range from 7.9% Fixed to 9.99%Fixed. (Got Both CAP 1 and Chase to lower the APR) Oh and the credit limits are much higher. If you sign up for a crappy APR card just be sure to pay the balance off every month(just like you should with any card no matter the APR) Just be smart with your credit.

Front page story on Yahoo about Wisconsin gas at 33 cents - hypocrisy?

In a story on the Yahoo homepage right now there was a gas station employee who accidently entered the price wrong, so the pumps were only charging 32.9 cents instead of $3.299. The station does not have any employees on duty overnight, but you can still buy gas at the pump using your credit card. Word spread and people lined up for the cheap gas.

When the station manager found out about it, she stopped the pumps and fixed the price. When asked about it, she said "I was very upset that there's that many dishonest people. They knew there was a problem, and they took advantage of an employee's mistake and I think that's terrible."

So in other words, she thinks this was dishonest, but has no problem with normally charging $3.299 for a gallon of gas.
I agree that the station owners aren't (usually) the ones making the huge profit from high gas prices. Most people don't think about the station owners when they see the gas prices, they think about the oil companies that have been robbing them for years.


I've never worked at a gas station, but I would assume that the store managers are salary-based and that the prices are dictated by corporate so you can't really blame the employees or managers because they're just doing their job.

However, I think it's stupid that she thinks those customers are being dishonest though even though they are. It's like leaving money out on the streets and expecting people not to take it.

Why do I lose my money when I gamble?

Please only answer if you can be honest!

I went out of town with my family this weekend to Wisconsin, and we went to the casino. I love playing the slots. But every time I put in a twenty in one of the nickel machines, I never could win big. I didn't understand. I looked to my left and a woman had like almost $1,000 on her machine- and I am like so confused by that! Was it because the woman was betting max lines/credits? I wasn't by the way- I don't feel like spending $7.50 a shot in a NICKEL machine!

The only machine I did okay on was a $1 - I won $45 on it, but then I wound up spending it all on anther 2cent machine. My family got mad when I ended up going through $400 of the rent money on slots. Can anyone give me answers as to why this happened and how to play better in the future. Also:

1) How come the nickel machines end up costing more then the $1?

2) How come other people around me seemed to have no problem in winning big on their slots? People say its just luck but I don't think so- there's no way the odds are going to be that great that EVERY slot I sat on, people around me seemed to be making major cash.

3) Is it better to play max lines, or max credits?


At slots the more you gamble the more you will lose on average. If you enjoy yourself then that is worth a nickel. If you stress that you never win then you should stop because betting more just means you will lose more.

New business and I'm tired of phone solicitors?

I recently got new phone service and ever since, I'm constantly getting sales calls - in particular companies for accepting credit cards. Is there such a thing as a no-call list for businesses - I'm located in Wisconsin, USA. Or should I just give up and go back to my Vonage phone line which never got this...

Champs Sports Bowl: Miami More a Sneeze Than a Hurricane Vs ...

Aside from a huge gain on the opening kickoff and the subsequent Miami touchdown run, the Hurricanes offense was frozen in place.

Take it from someone who was there, the chill that ran through the ACC side of the stadium during the Champs Sports Bowl had nothing to do with Mother Nature.

On a night where this particular bowl game saw a record 56,000 plus fans, two-thirds of that crowd adorned in orange and green, there still wasn't enough body heat to resuscitate the cold, lifeless body of the offense or the blocking sleds posing as a defense. 

The final score, Wisconsin 20, Miami 14, gives absolutely no indication of what occurred on the field tonight. 

And if you look at the stats, they give you an inkling but also are misleading.
