Credit card companies are known for taking as much as they can from cardholders, whether it's higher interest rates or creative fees. Wouldn't it be great if you could take something back from your credit card company and have fun at the same time? Well I have great news, if your card has a concierge system like the Chase Signature Visa, you can. And prankster John Hargrave did.

Hargrave, who notoriously pranked the 2007 Super Bowl halftime show, was delighted to learn that his VISA Signature Chase Freedom card came with the same concierge services as many higher-end credit cards and took advantage of this newfound power for our enjoyment.

The first step involved a search for cheese. Not just any cheese, but nacho cheese -- a lot of nacho cheese; in fact, "enough to fill a punch bowl." To top it off, he wanted to be able to pick it up when he was in Austin, Texas on a trip. Contrary to what many customers hear from their credit card company, John was told "no problem" and issued a case number.
