I am getting so I really hate Chase Rewards Visa. They are the only credit card company that I have trouble with. Most banks and credit card companies have instituted new security procedures recently.

One thing Cable And Wireless is known for is consistent inconsistency. Since about 9:00 this morning, C&W’s throughput has not been worth a flip. Normally my mornings are pretty good and the afternoons degrade.
