So when you use your debit card and actually have no money in your account even when it SAYS theres money in your account, we charge your credit line and apply a fee to your checking account for roughly the amount of money you spent (So it looks like I'm spending my own money). >Have no idea what to do and want to take these thieves to court
Thanks Jews, real nice scam you got goin' on. Hope you're having fun eating and raping little girls because Wotan is rising and justice is about to be unleashed.
Yeah, banks are a scam. You really think it takes them 5 days to put $100 in your account? No. They can do it in two seconds. But then they wouldn't be able to nickel and dime you with fees.
Jordan Butler
Wells Fargo and Bank of America are by far the worst though, Wells Fargo got hit a few months ago with a court decision because they were literally doing illegal secret transactions with people's accounts. If at all possible move banks.
Colton Wood
This is why I just use a debit card only through a credit union.
Logan Russell

Benjamin Morgan
I don't feel bad for you one bit. Retards like you who fall for the le credit is bad may may deserve this. I pay everything in credit, pay off everything in time, have a top tier credit score that allows me to get any loan I desire and over the years I have gotten thousands of dollars free through cash back reward programs without paying a cent in fees. On the flip side I literally never use my debit card because of kike tricks like this. Anyone who uses a debit card is a retard.

Christian Russell
I use a major bank, and have never heard of this. My paycheck gets direct deposited wed@12pm and is available in my account at 6am thur morning. I also have a credit card from the same bank and if I ever over drafted, instead of a fee it would just charge my credit card instead.
Sounds like op is just a dumbass and doesnt read or ask any questions.
Also the few times I have been late on paying my credit card bill, I have always called and they removed the late fees+interest.
Angel Hughes
Implying I give a fuck.
Asher Peterson
That is the problem too many people like you lower the value of our money and lower everyone life standards. YOU are the problem and a good goy. Save money wisely in precious metals that never depreciate.
Matthew Martinez
Paying everything with credit card is seen as degenerate over here. That's what people do, who live above their means and can't afford stuff with their own money

Hudson Bennett
>not opening credit cards and reaping in rewards Millenials are so fucking dumb
> Taking credits to get a good score Good goy. I've never taken a credit and still have a prime score. On the other hand your credit score isn't based on your credit score but on how reliable you are in means of paying bills, your paychecks and savings/assets in Germany.

I wanted to point out how fucked your system is. You are literally forced to borrow money from someone else instead of using your “own“
Elijah Perry
damn m8 did I strike a nerve? Don't be so upset cause you have shit credit and are in debt I know it sucks missing out free money that credit cards give out
Jack Parker
>inb4 you pay it off every month no you fucking dont Yes I fucking do it's literally not hard at all to live within your means you lack of self control fuck.
It works fine for me. The system only hurts stupid people.
Isaiah Ross
If your debit card is stolen and used you're fucked out of your money. That is not the case here with credit cards. It hedges actual risk.
Use of the credit card to purchase certain goods comes with perks like extended warranties on the goods purchased, price protection guarantees, and the ability to charge back when you get fucked over. You don't get these with debit cards or checks.
Colton Peterson
>falling for the building credit meme
Yes good goy, take out loans you don't need and pay us interest! Build up that (((credit rating))) so you can eventually take an even bigger loan to buy your first home! You do want a house don't you?
Carson Wilson
The lesson here is quit being such a spineless faggot. You wanted to open a checking account, not a credit line. I live in a small town and there are probably ten separate bank branches within a quarter mile of me. If some diversity hire mestizo started getting lippy about upselling services, I'd just walk to the next bank and find a branch willing to do what I asked without jerking me around.
Dylan Rivera
>inb4 you pay it off every month no you fucking dont Yes I fucking do. Actually I keep it at 10% utilization to maximize my credit rating. Get a secured card first, then a small credit line, then higher credit line and something like a personal or car loan. Just don't buy shit you can't afford and it will pay off when you actually need the credit.
John Williams
So whose the safest bank?
Lucas Myers
Wells fargo has done the same shit to me many times. It is their business model to repeatedly fuck people and run to government like daddy.

It literally is easy if you aren't retarded.
Landon Flores
actually all of the presidents and ceos of wells fargo in recent years when the scams have been going on have been white, nonjews. this sounds less like a scam and more like you don't know much about finances and haven't been following your own money.
Luke Ramirez
I have never had a problem with Wells. Are you just not responsible?
Michael Scott
Nah its a shitty system. Youre just giving your money to mega jews. They make ungodly ammounts of money off of interest. This would be like trying to accumulate frequent flyer miles when itln reality it will never pay off for the average american. US independence was fought and won because kikes in England wanted to control our interest rates and make money off our hard work. The same exists today.
Wyatt Murphy
>We have that with debit cards here tho. Also with debit cards. Using your own money only can't get you fucked for not repaying on time
4 years and two cards and it's really easy to have not paid a single penny in interest. Anyone who is dumb to fall for a credit card like that will almost certainly take out a worse form of credit on a car, student loans, house, etc.
Evan Turner

Ryder Miller
Do people really not abuse credit card reward systems? what dumbass can't pay their statement off at the end of the month?
Robert Campbell
I've never paid a single cent of fees or interest on my credit cards. Over the years I probably have a couple hundred dollars worth of cash back for just using my cards on normal purchases that I needed to buy anyways, and I pay it in full immediately after I get the statement. All of them with no annual fees.
Colton Powell
Consumerist sheep
Again: why take a loan if I have that money?
William Sullivan
>>But muh 20 bucks Starbucks gift card and free miles What part of I get cash back that has equated to thousands of dollars for free don't you understand?

Trips of truth. Praise.
Gabriel Johnson
I've had so many headaches related to bank bullshit.
I was running my own company quite a few years back, doing construction, framing, painting, drywalling, etc. Anyway I was just starting out so I didn't have much capital or cash float, so basically I'd get the check from the contracting company, deposit it to my bank, then write checks for my own employees.
So I'm in the bank one time, depositing something like $15,000 and the bank teller tells me "you know you can just deposit to the ATM, your account has no hold on it so it will be available immediately, just FYI next time" so I think great, no more waiting 15 minutes in line to do this shit. So a couple weeks later I'm in again, deposit the check (around same amount) and go to withdraw some to pay one employee immediately in cash, think I tried to withdraw $2000, "insufficient funds" after just depositing $15,000. What the fuck! I go talk to the teller, "there's nothing we can do sir." i ask for manager, "there's nothing we can do sir", I basically had to throw a temper tantrum in the bank and they finally go and get some security guy to open up the ATM and give me my deposit back so I can cash it directly at the tellers desk.
Shits retarded, I fucking hate banks. Ended up closing my account with that one and opening at a different one that actually doesn't hold my ATM deposits so everything's good now but still.
Another time when i was really young, 18 or so, I had a credit card with the same bank I had my savings/chequing acocount with. Anyway I missed a payment on that credit card so they go in, on their own without my permission, and move like $1000 from my chequing account over to my credit card payment account. Next thing I know I have checks bouncing, car payments bouncing, fucken hell, FUCK BANKS still makes my blood boil to this day like 15 years later
Ryan Murphy
Yeah I'm a fucking idiot for taking advantage of an existing system for my benefit, sorry dude

I pay with credit for everything its already easy enough for people to steal your identity why swipe your debit card at the pumps only for sone ass hole to steal your shit with a reader
Jacob Richardson
>thousands of dollars for free Over which course of time? If that's more than one or two years, you're a fucking idiot. You're willingly giving away your personal data etc to third parties for a 2% discount?
Ian Martin
You're paying with your personal data
Joshua Price
Because at the very least it protects your actual money. Money stolen from the credit card does not come from your actual cash supply. Money stolen from your debit card is gone. It's a buffer. It's de facto not a loan if you just keep track of it and pay it off at the end of the month.
It's a very small demographic of people who will be worse of for having a credit card because those who fuck up with credit cards are at a much higher risk of fucking up everything else.
Austin Price

Cameron Cook
If you use a smartphone or have a computer, they already have it. Debit cards sell consumer information too.
Robert Campbell
I use Well's Fargo, and they always make a pretty clear distinction between your pending balance and what's actually available to you. I can't think of a time a deposit didn't go through in 24 hours, either.
Matthew Ward
Credit Unions are half memes.
Too many have changed since when they opened and offer sub par service.
Just have to be careful when checking them out.

Mason Diaz
Not your money, theyre using it right now. The idea that we pay people to control access to our money is fucking retarded. Its even more retarded when you consider these people are on non government boards discussing how to fuck people more. Quite frankly judging by your flag your opinion means basically nothing, no one in your country actually controls this process, youre the lowest common denominator in this system. Countries like yours are the most susceptible, a foreign entity controls your currency If you disagree or agree with it, theres nothing you can do.

If you're fine some shady third party tracking your while life then that's your issue. But for myself I don't really appreciate that
Julian Wood
You are an idiot. Get a degree in Finance or Economics then maybe you can be certified to talk shit on credit.
Cameron Ross
>Information about a few stores/companies I shop at. >Tracking my whole life.
Pick one and just one.
Otherwise, fair enough. You do you, I'll do me.
Carter Parker
This shit is starting to piss me off. The store by my house forces you to sign up for a 'plenti card' or they'll add basically 20% to every purchase. There's no discounts really. It's just a huge fucking penalty for purchasing without giving them your information. Seriously, a bottle of Gatorade costs like $3.50 without the card. When you use the card, it's like $2.15 or so. There are tons of little markups like that, just so they can extort you into giving over your name and information.
Then I went to Banana Republic to buy some jeans, and they want me to sign up for a plenti card. Offer me 10% off each purchase - which, again, is really just a 10% punishment markup for not giving them your info.
I have no idea what the information is being used for. I'm sure I signed my soul away by giving them my information.
Joshua Baker
>I get free money from a bank and they don't profit from it because I'm so le smart xD Seriously kys. Americans really are prime goyim. You deserve everything coming upon you
Grayson Barnes
Never said they did not profit from it. Fucking kill yourself. How the fuck do you start a business or go beyond your current means without credit? You don't. Credit allows for maximum growth. Of course it has risks that go along with it too, that's the nature of the lending/borrowing game. Now fuck off Kraut cuck who probably makes 25k euros a year with a 90% tax rate to subsidize refugee homes.
Nathan Russell
I don't know where you live, but no store indirectly forces me to sign up where I shop/live. Almost always same price with/without signing up, or there's a small discount if you give your information.
I almost always use my credit card when buying shit since I get 2% cash back. Adds up after a while and I always pay back in the same statement, meaning I pay no interest.
Andrew Peterson
>Information about a few stores/companies I shop at. If you're doing every payment with your credit card that's basically your life. Also these third parties probably don't just buy your financial data but also the stuff generated by using your smart phone and other devices. That's what kinda scares me, thus I'm trying to give them as few info as possible
Carter Lopez
time to switch to Bitcoin faggots. Its the only way to BTFO of the Rothschilds globalist conspiracy. Take away their financial power.
Parker Russell
>How the fuck do you start a business or go beyond your current means without credit? I didn't say credits are obsolete in general. Of course you need a credit to open a business or build/buy a house. But you don't need credits for daily life. Work on your reading comprehension, mongrel
Isaiah Cox
>inb4 you pay it off every month
But I do...It's just to generate a credit history and build a decent credit score, which you can't get anything without nowadays. It literally has zero downside.
Wyatt Hughes
You don't need it for daily life, however using it for daily life carries no risks if you are responsible. Buying groceries with credit instead of cash is fine, assuming that you have the cash for that, and it will build up credit score. It will not cost extra, unless you do not pay it on time.
Parker Jenkins
Also they fully cooperated with operation chokepoint
Blake Miller
>If you're doing every payment with your credit card that's basically your life. Nope. They know some things about me, but no way close to my whole life. That's a very slippery slope you're on.
It's also much easier to buy stuff on credit than in cash. As long as I know I have my credit card on me, I know I have a method of paying for whatever I need. Don't have to worry about ever needing cash on me.
>In before just carry a debit card For the purpose of what you're arguing, cash is the only way they don't track your info, so a debit card is just as useless as a credit card.
It's an equal road. They profit with the limited info they have on me. I save 2% each purchase and save time in my daily life.
But again, congrats on protecting your highly valuable shopping information. I'm sure you're throwing a huge wrench into the system.
Eli Brown

Jason Martinez
You're an idiot. Move out of your moms basement and learn how things work in adult land.
Luke Nguyen
are you genuinely stupid or just trolling? You dont pay interest on a credit card if you pay the loan back every month.
You can literally treat a credit card like a debit card and make purchases only within your budget, and get benefits for free.
The deciding factor in whether you get hit with fees or not with a credit card is entirely you and your own fiscal reaponsibility and planning. If you're dumb and spend beyond your means, you pay a price.
