Some good ideas on handling credit cards

My friend Pamela Yip at the Dallas Morning News wrote a great story about how to negotiate a lower interest rate for your credit cards. Like her readers, I've always found that they just won't lower rates, no matter what. But she's put together some good ideas on how to make it through their system and get yourself a break.

I am not sure if rates can be negotiated for reduction here in HK especially with rewards program in place (example: http://www.hsbc.com.hk/1/2/hk/cards/rewards/flexi-rewards) but I guess it's generally at the mercy of card issuers. I agree with Pamela's ideas though.
