i love my credit card when i dont have any money to purchase something,but i hate paying back the high interest
My credit card is to me, An essential accessory. Love or hate it, I don’t know, But thanks to it, I have lots to show. If I’m feeling down or depressed, My credit card gives me excitement and zest. Enabling me to go on a shopping spree, And filling me with glee. There’s nothing like buying a new pair of shoes, To escape the baby blues. New kitchen accessories, a dishwasher to go, My old one was a bit too slow. An overseas holiday-Bali will do, Frequent flier points we can accrue. New clothes from Cue I always need, As long as my credit limit I don’t exceed. Purchases like this make me love my plastic money, But getting the bill is not so funny. So easy to spend on the plastic, My husband doesn’t think it’s fantastic, I’m going to have to hide the bill, Behind the windowsill. There it can stay, For a rainy day. I’ll make no more purchases and start paying it off, But what if I’m sick and develop a cough. Will need! credit card therapy to make me feel better, Before I know it I’m buying a sweater. After all, I can’t help it you see, Love or hate it, my card gets the better of me!!!
I hate it because the interest rate is astronomical.I love it because i can buy something that i see on ale and just cant pass up.
I hate my credit card cause it just makes spending to easy and tempting... my 3 small kids now understand how the card works and put added pressure on me "cause we don't need the dollars mummy"... "WEll not right now anyhow kids and i"ll worry about how to pay it later will I"...
To carry a credit card is very hard. Sometimes it's good sometimes it's bad. Most of the time when I get a bill I'm very sad. Interest rates sneak up. A little extra purchase here or there. Anxiety of getting the next bill has me pulling out all my hair. If you pay it late or before the due date. Something shifty happens that makes me irate. I try to run very far but It doesn't help that I paid with my credit card for my car. Maybe ill put it in a block of ice. But I know when the sales are on I'll be thinking twice. It's so easy to spend and lend to a friend. When all you have to do is swipe or slide. My credit card pretends to be on my side. But when its says declined. I think in my mind Where did all my credit go? I look at my groceries and clothes and then I know. Maybe it's my credit card that runs the show. So I go with the flow And admit my financial sin. I say my goodbyes and put it in the bin.
I love the customer service with my credit card, whenever I have a problem I can just contact them and they quickly fix it. I hate the annual fee, its too high and I dont how to reduce it.
Gold, Silver or Platinum is manna from Heaven for this happy mum!
The ease of paying for this shopper, prevents me from coming a cropper!
I love it-a good rate, good local service, good pro active security, good web access. I just wish it wasn't maxed out! and the annual fee is a bit high/steep ($90) NAB Visa Very nice people to deal with. Which is bloody amazing!
Love it as it is my friend who give me happy when spending. Hate it as it is my friend who set a trap for me to spend and let me broke.
Last night I lost my Credit Card. Lost forever. Together with drivers license, library cards, Medicare card, etc. In fact, the whole purse went missing. But the loss of the CC was a real heartbreaker. I realised I loved CC, but only when it was gone. Why did you leave me, CC? I know I was careless and never gave you enough attention while you were always there for me, giving me a helping hand when I was broke and not asking me for much in return, just a minimum payment. I'd misplaced you sometimes but only to re-unite with you shortly, and the feeling of having you back would be priceless. What am I to do now if I need to shop online? I can't do it without you, CC! And you know how cash tends to disappear quickly? It was never like that with you, CC! I love your loyalty and this warm feeling of security when we were together. Please come back and I promise I will appreciate, cherish, take care of you and pay the balance on time. Always!
My credit card enables me to travel and to be a lot freerer with my spending than with just plain cash
I love you because you know how to satisfy me wherever I am. You give me everything I want, but I also hate you because you only satisfy me at a price. I find it easy to forget that I have to pay you back later, I just enjoy the moment. Yes, I love you, I hate you, but I wouldn't be without you.
i love the credit card if thee is a big sale and use for the things i need, but i dont use for you need. and the hate about the credit card because of the high interest on cards and if you running out of time paying back the hights you most.
I love my credit card because: *it lets me buy online *its easier to use than coins (that's my nephew's suggestion) *even when I'm broke i can buy *it adds to my happiness (eg it lets me shop) I hate my credit card because * i have to pay it off * it charges interest * it lets me buy things i don't need!
My credit card allows me the freedom to purchase products online, over the phone and instore without needing to organise the cash first. It is also fantastic in earning me points to redeem and spend in other ways. It has so many more added benefits than plain old cash, that when given the chance, I'd opt to use my credit card over cash any day. That's why I love my credit card!
LOVE my credit card because it allows me to rack up lots and lots of frequent flyer points without actually having to earn them flying. OR I can use the points for vouchers at Target/Myer/KMart etc. for that new Emjoi Gently Gold that I so badly need. The only thing I HATE about my credit card is the bloody annual fees, frequent flyer participation fees and extra cardholder fees! Why can't I have it all without having to pay for it?! When used wisely a credit card is a great tool. You just have to make sure you don't let it get the best of you by paying those hefty interest rates. I pay for nearly everything with my beloved card and make payments periodically so that come bill time it's not a huge whack. My card is also so very handy for making online purchases - renting cars, hotels, flights and the all important e-bay and amazon transactions. I don't know how I would survive without my babies (okay, I admit it...I have more than 1)
I love and hate it, its really like a relationship. Love it cause it gives me total freedom to live in my city, buy and get whatever I want. Hate it because I have to pay for that a lot later.
