Money, Money, Money
A long time ago, in a financial institution far, far away...
Considering my credit card is like my swimming back stroke, I put a lot of energy in but I get nowhere, I had to get finance to get a car. First I approached the GE Money Genie, just to test the waters seeing as they claim to be rather accomodating. Instead I get a rather dismissive phone call from their local guy(or is that monkey jerk?), claiming that I had lied and that my recruitment firm said I don't work for them.
I tried explaining to him the subtleties of my working arrangement but he was pretty adamant that I had a business. He told me I hadn't worked long enough and that I show him a profit and loss statement for the financial year just passed. Of course I don't have a business, but he was quite dismissive and not helpful at all. No soup for him!
Anyway according to the bloke who did my taxes today these guys are rather dodgy, their interest rates are pretty high and they are really harsh on late repayments. The guys at work suggested I try my bank (which bank?) as they'd have a better understanding of my history and all that. So I applied online, got a follow-up from the lady from the local branch and was given a letter of approval-in-principal.
