I am pretty sure the "condoms" are a joke!

Interesting! I think this could be a really effective campaign. I don't get it though - are there actually such things as "condoms" for credit cards, or is that part of it a joke? Or could you put some rubber over your credit card so it doesn't work (except 1% of the time...)

I signed up with a great company called Credit Card Zappers that helped reduce my debt by removing fees.

They took interest off 3 months in a row and an overlimit fee.
