I have been miserably entangled with Chase Credit Cards for a few years now, but until about a year ago I was in good standing with them. I had started with a Providian Visa and a Chase MasterCard. But things changed. The SEIU site sums it up:

During those years I had accrued a balance of around $7,000 on one and $3,000 on the other. I realized I was paying over $300 per month to two different credit cards, both of which were now Chase. I had very little income, and difficulty finding work...

I have been entangled, for the last few years, with Chase Credit Cards.
I started my first card, though, not with them. I actually can't remember what the bank was, but I think it was a Providian Visa.
