blooba says "if i had to use credit card i would choose this one" about Chase - Credit Card

blooba — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 15:01:04 GMT

I now hate credit cards now that I'm into debt upto my eyeballs but I would choose this one over any of the others I've got because they are an alright bank. Customer service isn't the greatest but if you have a serious problem the "higher ups" are good at working with you. I got laid off from my job and fell behind in my payments and the good old bill collectors starting calling then I got a new job and a guy from Chase called and said if I made a series of payments he could take away some fees and get me back under my limit and on track again. Well I made the payments and at the end of it no fees were taken off, my account was closed and I was still over my limit. I was furious so I called and talked to one of the flunkies they have answering the phone ,he couldn't do anything, so I talked to his boss,she couldn't do anything and was very impolite. So I called corporate headquarters and talked to the head of customer service told her everything and she fixed everything like it was......

blooba says "rip off don't do business with them." about Bank of America - Visa Card

blooba — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 14:42:04 GMT

too many and too high of fees and interest especially if you fall behind in your payments. They are also not willing to work with you like other banks. My $500 maxed out credit card balance is now at $2500 in less than a year due to being laid off and unable to pay it. They also charge fees for the fees. (i.e. they charge you a late payment fee that puts you over your limit so they charge you a overlimit fee then they charge interest on all of it so they are charging me about $150 a month for a $500 credit card. What is that 350% interest? Thats worse than those payday loan places charge and they won't even work with me on it....

blooba says "Good Survey Site " about Global Test Market

blooba — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 20:53:44 GMT

Globaltestmarket is a god legit site that pays you to take surveys. It does take a while to accumalate the $50 for payout but you even earn points if you do not qualify. I have seen a decline in surveys with them but I still have earned $80 this past year although your results may vary because of the qualifiers....

blooba says "Great survey site" about MySurvey

blooba — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 20:36:22 GMT

Mysurvey is a great survey site that is legit. They are also one of the few that also do paper surveys by USPS. I have dialup internet and I hate tying up my phoneline all the time filling out surveys but with Mysurvey they also mail you surveys which you collect points from also. I would say I make about $100 a year from them although your results may vary because of the qualifiers....

blooba says "At least you get paid for your time." about InboxDollars

blooba — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 20:24:52 GMT

You get paid around 5 cents per email that you click on and you must collect $30 to cashout but you do receive your money although it takes a while to build it up. Surveys are through greenfield and if you keep trying the surveys alot of the time you will find one that you qualify for and make a $1 from. Some good payout for registering onto sites for free but I was already signed up to most of them already.Your not gonna get rich but an extra $50 or so a year for a little time is ok.

blooba says "Just good for calling" about Samsung - SCH-R500 Cell Phone

blooba — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 20:08:19 GMT

The Samsung SCH R500 Hue isn't anything special. It does have GPS capability but the reception to satellites suck. There are no preloaded games. The caculator has alot to be desired. The "web browser" is very limited in its capabilities. The only thing it is good for is just to make calls and the price. ...

blooba says "Great Toothbrush for the money." about Crest SpinBrush Pro Whitening

blooba — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 19:48:10 GMT

The Crest Spinbrush Pro is a great toothbrush. I normally hate brushing my teeth but the Spinbrush makes it easy. Its small and contoured perfectly to fit in my hand. There's no charger to mess around with and a batteries will last forever in it and the price was right. The downfalls are that the inner gears in the replacable heads are made of plastic and the top rotating head doesn't spin if too much pressure is put on it and the replacement heads dont come with new brushhead covers so if you wanted to use it you will need to wash it out and if it breaks your screwed....
