My story about cantract

When I came to Canada, I applied for a credit card. But I didn't read the contract carefully. 
Because it was too many English words for me to understand. So I just signed it, and got the card. 
After 2 months, I found that  there was some dollars be debited every months. 
I didn't know what that for. So I called the bank . 
The customer service man told me that was for insurance with the spending of my credit card.
I even didn't know I have it! Maybe it was in the cantract.
It was useless for me. Finally, I cancelled it.
