tiamatladyThe bastards at my credit card company won't give me a milage card. Or rather, they won't convert my current account to a mileage/rewards card.
*POUTS*
I dream of free airfare to Germany. I dream of free upgrades (right![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kanine?) I dream of reduced rate fares. I dream of a booty call across the pond that doesn't cost more than the gross nation product of a small, third world country.
And they deny me.
To add insult to injury, I know this was one of the outsourced job people. I avoid customer service like the plague, prefering the cold harsh realty of the online services. It might be a bit behind but I never struggle with evil menus that never lead to a human, or if they do, to someone who doesn't speak my language and is having trouble understanding me.
*le sigh*
So I will take them up on the other offe they ARE allowing me. To transfer the balance from one of my other cards onto it, raising my limit by what it takes. It has a lower rate, and I HATE the other card anyway. I plan on getting rid of it, or at LEAST putting it in the freezer, only to be used if something catastrohpic happens to my car. (I think I will at least keep it open, maybe leave one of my bills on it so it stays open and active. Then I pay it off every month. See how that works?)
I only have three. The third just arrived, it is FINALLY the gas card I want, only at Mobil/Exxon (which sucks because I've been using Hess) and now I have NO EXCUSE for using my other cards.
Responsibility is the key, ma' peeps. By using them and paying them off I rebuild my credit. I was silly, and now I'm not. Plus, now I always have gas money, even if I don't have money.
*beams*
(Still want rewards tho. *pouts again*)
*edited to add* and they tried to sell me that damn protection service too. In case I "loose" my job and can't make the payments. And, as written into their scripts, they wouldn't take my first "no" for an answer. Frakin frak.
