Employer’s increased use of credit check

[paramount]

I think many have been sold a bill of goods on retirement. In reality the fantasy retirement from Wall Street and Madison Avenue is a hustle and another way for them to harvest $$ from the masses.

In these tough times we need more empathy and less hard line judgments based on a credit report – which often contain errors anyway.

just close the ones that start doing it.. It’s their loss. They end up not making the fee on the transaction.

Got my handy Costco Amex and Citibank Rewards card for while. Pretty happy with the 1/2/3 rewards% I use my costco amex everywhere they take amex, ause my citibank only in amex isn’t accepted.

I had a Hilton amex card that I recently canceled. They were begging me to keep it because of the affiliation. Haven’t used it 4 years and no fees.

Heck my company does background checks and checks GPAs and verifies degrees issued – and has for more than a decade… so screwing up your first year of college CAN follow you for a long time.

Hmmm, I attended a private college in UK back in the early 80’s. Apart from my certificate, I have a hell of a time with these kind of checks and have less patience for them.
