ABC news profiled Ann Minch’s one-woman debtor’s revolt in the story above. When Bank of America raised her credit card interest rate to 30% and wouldn’t lower it, Minch posted a video on YouTube and declared war on the bank.  “I could get a better rate from a loan shark,” she quips in the video.  Bank of America responded. An executive called her, and she succeeded in negotiating a lower interest rate of 12.99%.  She’s not stopping there, though. Minch is launching her own website www.debtorsrevoltnow.com to help others demand fairness from their creditors. Click here to watch Minch’s video on YouTube.
