Suddenly and stealthily I began to receive all kinds of bills. Yesterday I received a $2.00 late charge(with promises that the $2.00 would shortly grow to $10.00) out of the blue –and this was several weeks after I closed down the account!!!!
Each time I call to protest a weird bill, it’s instantly rescinded. But suppose 50,000 people get the fraudulent late fee–that’s almost $100,000 profit for Macy’s.
How stupid does Macy’s think we are.
