Yes the credit card company can OFFER a change of rates for future purchases. YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE IT IN THE FUTURE. Tear it up if you don't want the higher rate.

WIthout a judgment they would not be able to lien anything unless you have a SECURITY agreement.

Call or e-mail for further assistance.
