Before the credit card companies were able to increase the rates with or with out notification, but now they have to notify if any increase rate or annual fee, within 45 days notification. When this happen, a simple call to the credit card companies to opt out from the fees or increase of the APR will work.

Check what are the cons with the credit card companies, since they can rise the minimum payment or make it harder to pay, also read their notices for any restrictions or considerations

Credit card companies can do what they like with interest rates. You are effectively borrowing money from the credit card company (they pay the store for the goods you buy) then you pay the card company back. They are entitled to charge for the service they provide. The interest they charge pays for the production of the cards, the offices, computer systems and staff - and the interest THEY pay on the money they are lending you !
