I charge thousands of dollars of purchases on my credit cards monthly that I pay off in full every month.

I check every charge posted on my bills to make sure that I'm not overcharged.

Just found a $2.85 overcharge on a $7.44 restaurant purchase that I'm going to contest. It's not a lot of $ but it's the principle of the thing.

Never going back to that place again!!! ๐Ÿคฌ

This is so wrong. And since like everything else wrong in this world that I cannot control, I joined the dark side with multiple rewards cards.

@Em0nM4stodon Damn!

So you are stuck with Controlled Opposition like SumUp (tho they explicitly ban donations and non-profits per ToS, so good luck finding any payment processor who does and isn't run by some christofascist assholes!) and/or negotiating something with like NowPayments, which can do automated off-ramp so you don't need to touch any shitcoins yourself but get fiat.

The AI's writing these credit card emails are insance.

I just got one telling me to 'Activate your 10.99% promo rate now!' as if a 10.99% promo rate is some kind of selling point.

Insane.
