    You can have your landline number ex directory..

    I thought that's the whole point - to be in the directory.

    Otherwise I could get a virtual landline via Skype.

    Complicated stuff.

    I'm always keen to find extra money, I even have Google Doc with 15-20 referral links for stuff that I use but I'm pretty sure the rules are rather against spam etc...?

  • - signed up LoqBox to build my credit score

    I have seen many times people with very few postings. Talk about LoqBox. Typically they seem to pretend not to know about credit worthiness,

    Is it just a coincidence ??????

    Who on earth rational wanted to pay just to increase credut woryhiness if you could find a better way without paying a penny ???????

    AS others have mentioned just stick with using credit cards to buy things each month that you would be buying anyway and pay the statement off in full each month.

    This will improve your credit score.
    This thing really works. However, you can go from six months to a year until it works.

    What “thing” really works?
    Or are we just spamming now?
