Did I read this right???? In the news section of DR1, an article states that certain Dominican Banks charge up to 96% annual interest on their credit cards. If this is correct it is a Loan Shark rate, how could the government not regulate the Banks?????
"If this is correct it is a Loan Shark rate, how could the government not regulate the Banks?????"
Not true. Loansharks are far more honorable. They charge a 1/2% weekly, 1% weekly if they're really gouging you. That's 25-50%, but fairer than Dominican banks.
Naptime, you actually believe people....DOMINICAN PEOPLE will use their CC's less with high interest rates? I don't. I think the poor & uneducated will just get shafted even more.
good point.
i guess my real feeling is that we should not have credit cards at all.
