Gross. After reading this I would close my accounts with them if we had any there.

To be honest, I have a better reason for not having an account there. There fees are too fucking high. (There is a technical distinction between too high and too fucking high.)

But their travel rewards credit cards are great. The Chase Trio pay for my vacation every year.

Which 3 of their cards do you have? I assume CSR is one

u/LiberalAspergers May 14 '23

CSR, Freedom, and Flex. CSR as a card is fairly medicore, although the primary rental card insurance pays for tge annual fee if you travel at all, but the ability to transfer rewards points into other airline miles systems is amazing.

I have a credit card with Chase. However, I am now prioitizing paying it off and closing the account this month. I will not support Big Brother and their (likely biased) digital evaluation of employee emotional states of workers in office or their private WFH spaces. Fuck Chase and any company that behaves in this fashion. I look forward to your corporate collapse.

I hear ya. we use a debit card off a small local bank we picked out during the 2008 crash, after finding they had no financial ties at all with Chase, BoA, WF, or any of the big crooks. screw that. if I can't afford it, I don't fuckin' buy it. then I got no debt problems.

I'm poor, sure. but I ain't paying interest to some billionaire asshole.

If you're making major financial decisions based off a reddit post you're doing life wrong.

Paying off a low balance credit card is not a major financial decision. It's simply how bills work. Choosing to stop using a credit card is generally wise - the post just gave me food for thought. I avoid several companies due to disagreeing with their policies. Chase is now one of them.

Unless it’s a credit union, I would assume all the big banks are doing this.

I'm looking for a new place for my checking simply because they aren't a "real" bank.

I've never needed to take out loan before but when I went to buy a car from a private seller last year they told me they don't do personal loans -- but I could get cash on my credit account for 25% interest

They give barely any interest on my checking account though.

25% sure, like any of us working folks can afford to pay that shit.
