Corporate Advocacy Program™
I, too, received one of their unrequested cards. I read some complaints below and was shocked to see that some people called the # & say they HAD to activate. I am not advocating what they did, but honestly, no one MADE you activate that card. Please...don't be a fool! Here is my plan to expose them:
1. I took their card and immediately shredded it!
2. I took the top portion of their letter (with my address & theirs) ripped it off from the letter & wrote on there that I have reported their unlawful activity to the proper authorities...meaning the postmaster general.
*These unsolicited cards came thru the mail, which makes this a Felony,
rather than a "local" annoyance. Using the US Mail for these purposes is
illegal.
I also included a short note in this envelope and told them to immediately
remove me from their mailing list.
If any of you out there EVER receive an unsolicited credit card, don't ever call their activation #. Do as I've done above and report them to the postmaster general. They have authority over anything being sent through the US MAIL!

The real deal...
AUTHOR: Lynn - (U.S.A.)

CCA/CCS practices aren't necessarily good, but they are 100% legal. After being sued a few years back for their unlawful practices, they've changed around their program to ensure that it's "just enough" to slide along that legal line. Because the cards that are mailed out are not activated and aren't even the REAL cards, there's no crime there. The fine print maps out the routine of the company, and you have to read it ALL or you'll get suckered. They treat their employees like crap, but pay them well... and just a little FYI... they don't background check them, so when you issue your bank account info (account/routing numbers), you're not necessarily giving it to a person on the up and up.
However, the company does STRICTLY enforce rules regarding the protection of personal information, they just don't do what it would take to PREVENT it. Also, the company isn't located at the address that's being posted unless that's their new "bilingual" center.... It's at the corner of Maryland Parkway and Sahara, just a few blocks down from the strip. Legally, on the activation side, nothing can really be done....YOU call in to activate and everything is explained to you and in your hand. Yes, it is shady... and they are taking advantage of people, but it goes both ways, make sure to read ALL the fine print.
