Consumers Union has created CreditCardReform.org, which provides news updates and explanations to ensure that readers understand how credit card reform effects their financial situations, as well as a wealth of tips to help readers use credit responsibly.

In the months before the new protections outlined in the latest legislation go into effect, Consumers Union is attempting to monitor the various tactics that credit card companies sometimes use against cardholders. If your credit card provider adds a new fee, raises an existing fee, increases your interest rate, closes your account, lowers your credit limit, or takes away your rewards, they'd like to hear your story.
