I recently had a credit card company mail me a notice that they cut my available credit in half! I pay my cards on time and NEVER carry a balance. I realize this is probably the prudent thing for them to do (Seeing that I don't spend much on the card) but this will hurt my credit score by reducing my available credit. Any advice before I call them to complain?!

Thanks! Love the show!
