The Consumerist reports on the Continental Finance MasterCard. The fees include:

Account setup fee: $99
Program participation fee: $89
Annual fee: $49
Account maintenance fee: $120 (charged @ $10/month)
Purchase APR: 19.92%
Authorized user fee: $30 (great! seems like $53 credit is a bit too much for a single person to handle)
Credit limit increase fee: $25 (and you don’t even have to ask for it!)
Internet payment fee: $4 for each authorized internet payment.

After all that, your credit limit is $53. Link – via Consumerist

    I love that you couldn’t even pay the Program participation fee -with- your credit card without maxing it out …

    What is the point of this card? Who’d be dumb enough to sign up?
