Me to Visa: Please cancel my credit card. I just don't need it.
Visa: But you have a zero balance.
Me: That's right. I have others. I don't need it.
Visa: But you'll lose all of your benefits with us.
Me: That's right. I don't need them.
Visa: But you have great credit with us.
Me: That's because I have a zero balance. Cancel my credit card.
Visa: We hate to lose you as our customer. Is there nothing we can do for you?
Me: You can cancel my credit card.
Visa: Are you sure you want to do that and give up your great credit rating with us?
Me: Yes, and don't ask me any more questions. Just cancel my credit card.
Visa: What is the interest rate you are paying on your other credit cards?
Me: That was a question. Cancel my credit card.
Visa: But we only charge 15%. That's a good rate.
Me: Cancel my credit card.
Visa: Do you pay an annual fee on your other credit cards?
Me: Cancel my credit card.
Visa: Mrs. Kent, this can't be undone. Do you realize that?
Me: Please cancel my credit card.
Visa: You can't ever reopen this credit card, do you understand?
Me: Please cancel this credit card.
Visa: (Sigh.) OK, Mrs. Kent. Would you like a letter of confirmation?
Me: Whatever floats your boat.
Visa: Is that a yes, Mrs. Kent?
Me: Sure. Have a blast. Send me a letter.
Visa: I'm going to read you a confirmation now, OK, Mrs. Kent? (Reads long BS.)
Me: OK.
Visa: OK, Mrs. Kent. If you ever would like to reopen your credit card, please let us know!
Me: You betcha!
