Re: Why debit cards are subprime =)

It wasn't the hard pull at car rentals that motivated me to address my credit. It was difficulty in getting some rentals to even consider letting me use a debit card in the first place. At the time I had no idea what a hard pull was or what a credit report had in it.


I have reestablished credit over the last couple years
so my moniker is, well, rather out of date.

WM Discover $1800, WF Plat 12k, Chase Freedom Siggy18k, Amex Plat (60k H/B), Citi AA EWMC 25k
