Rather quick question but
What happens if you exceed your credit card limit?

Then you can't borrow any more until your balance is below your limit. They still will charge you the typical annual interest rate, and if you miss a payment the rate will go higher. Also if you borrow near your limit often your credit rating gets tarnished even if you make minimum payments.

gotcha. cause when i put the final $25 of gas, the total was like 798 on the dot. was wondering why it processed at all.
looks like a bottle of water for lunch tomorrow
