Re: Here it comes... The Landslide of Realities, we've been expecting...

Bought gas today and used the debit card. They asked me to ok a service fee for using the debit card.

I believe if you use a bank card as a credit card instead of debit you
don't pay either. But I expect that option will be taken away before
long. You have to buy checks and they aren't exactly free where I
bank, but they are fairly cheap. A lot of places are just doing an
electronic withdrawal on a check these days anyway just like it was a
debit card. I haven't paid any attention to fees on this process,
but I don't think it costs you anything. They could add fees here too
I suppose if they want.

Anyway, DB is right on. And even though I am not in any denial, I reserve the right to still be pissed off.

Give up your debit card and write checks. They will 'love' that and the cost is free.

Well everywhere I am looking, mail I am opening, bill I am receiving, it goes on and on. Each is going up. Credit Card 14.99 with a subtle threating note about if I opt out then my account will be DUE and Payable ( all $83.00 due ) if someone had like $10,000 balance he would fell like he was just hit by a professional loan shark. I think the old rate was 8.99% a few months ago to 11.99% a month ago and now 14.99%.

Debit Cards have $0.35 fees to use them now.. Say hello to the nickle-diming you to death stuff. It adds up too.

Next: The utility bills have all these new rates.. Gasoline is going up too. Little fees.. here and there.. $50 to walk my 11 year old granddaughter through the airports on a trip to see her cousins. Extra baggage fees, Blanket fees, Pillow fees, you name it..

Anyway here they come. 15% value added tax.. to pay for all this is a sound idea but it is going to piss off a lot of people in denial still of what just took place..
