Your rights with credit card companies

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act you have 60 days from the statement date to dispute a billing error in writing, and the issuer must investigate. Your liability for unauthorized charges is capped at $50 by law (and usually zero in practice). Issuers must give 45 days' notice before raising your interest rate or most fees.

Scam warning: Your card company will never ask you to read out a full card number, PIN or one-time code on a call it made. Hang up and call the number on the back of the card.
