We did this once before:

In light of the bailout of Citibank earlier today, I'm calling on this community to cancel a credit card once again - this time, specifically, a credit card issued by Citibank.
After all, you can be certain that Citigroup is going to be loaned money on terms far more favorable than the "PRIME PLUS 18.99%" that we're all accustomed to receiving on our credit cards. (h/t Persiflage.)
Well, I for one am having no more of it. These companies are pillaging our treasury, our economy, our way of life. If the federal government honestly believes that these companies are "too big to fail," then it's high time that their base of customers simply gets up and walks away.
I am canceling two Citibank credit cards today, my credit rating be damned. If we're on the hook to bail out this repulsive shell of a company, then Citigroup will not receive a single solitary penny from me through a credit card ever again.
Tell them you're canceling because of the bailout. Tell your friends and spread the word.
Let's stand up as a community and do this.
