First, it's spelled Mercantile Bank. Secondly, they do not charge interest from the time you use the card. I have had my VISA through them for years and this year on my final statement "Interest paid this year....$0.00", clearly that would not be possible if they charged from the moment of use. You must be thinking of another bank. Elizabeth Clayton ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-vicki!clayton
