What am I missing here ?

New card from Orchard. Yeah, I know how you feel and I haven't had the best in service from the house of HSBC. BUT...The card I got today is a 2% cash back, 0% interest for six months and then 8.9%APR after that. Other than the lowly 2K CL (1/4 of my HSBC Account) what am I missing here. This really isn't too bad of a deal, is it? Oh, it was supposed to have dolphins on it. I picked dolphins. It is blue like the dolphins one but no dolphins. Wonder why? I know, because it is HSBC and they just had to screw up a good thing.

You should file a complaint with all 3 CRAs, send copies CMRRR to HSBC and then file a complaint w/ the BBB

That would be hilaaarious!

Can somebody get contractor a dolphin... please???

...Make sure they know you're disputing the account until you get your stinkin' dolpins...

Well, in reality, they were bottle nosed porpoise, Tursiops truncatus. The mammal! Dolphins are a fish, mahi-mahi or dorado.

Call them up and demand your dolphin!

When you get your dolphins/porpoises, you're gonna have to change your avatar. That dorsal fin looks more shark-y than porpoise-y. Not very welcoming!

The sea mammals were a bait and switch: ////////////////////////////////////// Dear Contractor, We are writing to you in response to your inquiry regarding your Account ending in 0XXX issued by HSBC Bank Nevada N.A.
