.....in the last two months, I've had two letters, one from Co-op Bank and the other from M&S Financial Services to say that because I haven't used my cards with them for "some time", they are going to cancel the card at the date of renewal, unless I ring them up to say I still want it, or if I use the card in between now and then. This seems to be a new policy, as I've had other cards for years which have not been used for ages, and they've just been renewed automatically with no fuss. What about those people who only use credit cards as a last resort normally to get them out of a fix, or only use them when they go on holiday overseas, which can be rare for some people - not even once a year.
