Hiya,

I originally looked at this part of the forum simply in wondering if I needed to get a credit card in order to hire a car. There is an awful lot of misinformation suggesting that hiring a car is almost impossible in this country without one.
This simply is untrue. I found that the first company I contacted (Enterprise - as it was closest to where I lived) did not distinguish between credit or debit cards in any way, shape or form.
I found an awful lot of threads that seem to suggest a credit card is both necessary and essential to normal life.
An awful lot of impressionable people will suffer as a result of this mis-information.
I have seen threads such as:
"How cool does your credit card look".
"The sub-prime credit card club".
This is to name but two recent examples - there are others. One of these seems to glamourise credit card use, whereas the other intends to encourage the most vulnerable to apply for and accept credit cards.
Surely this is not what this web-site should be seen to be encouraging. If I am wrong, then I am sorry, but I feel that the premise of the original post is correct, certainly in the light of recent catastrophic events.

Thought so , just got in and reading the last few pages. My suggestion is - if the poster don't agree , don't post coments which are not helpful!
This thread has a lot of people who have had one or two issues , but I am sure are not IRESPONSIBLE . People who have helped each other through experiences and advised.
Thats what this site and thread is about - take a look around any sub area.0 -

Don't agree with what?
Racism (on this thread) - It is my right to disagree with it. In fact it was not what the original post was about!
The other thread? - I do in fact agree with the original poster!0 -

There was never any racist comments you fool, you made them up, are you deluded in some way? Oh and why have I not been banned yet? Not had the bottle to stir things up with the MSE Administration? I wait in anticipation for somebody to dare challenge me over this one, no proof, no substance and...Well just "tell the teacher" childish mind-set. As a final though as I have said in many of my posts....am I bothered...NO!Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution.
