AOPA credit card --- WARNING. by RS
If you have an AOPA/MBNA credit card then you should check the APR on your last statements. MBNA has been raising the APR on AOPA cardholders, even if you pay on time. So check your credit card statements and call AOPA credit card services to complain. And also call MBNA to drop the rate back down.
