Am I missing something? There’s no mention of doing it wrong or insisting they not use credit cards. Just a suggestion that would solve the issue from the bank changes…
Comment on My credit union no longer allows me to payoff pending purchases made on my credit card
paraphrand@lemmy.world 4 days agoSome people get really judgemental about credit cards. Either about not using them, or about using them wrong.
This poster clearly explained how they were maintaining a healthy relationship with one, and you came in to argue with people about how they are “doing it wrong” and shouldn’t be part of the people using credit cards.
Did you know that credit card rewards disproportionately punish the poor? The rewards come out of the credit card terminal fees. And stores increase their prices appropriately to cover credit card fees. If you insist on someone not using credit cards when they are managing it fine, you may be suggesting that they be forced to pay more for their purchases.

What I’m seeing in the comments of this post is that people expect a good credit score, which is supposed to track how reliable you are at paying bills, without simply paying bills on time.

Nobody said anything about OP doing it wrong, cool your jets. The bank changed their policy. At that point your options are either take the advice of the parent comment, complain to the bank (which will likely get you nowhere), or find a new bank. Don’t get bitchy at people offering advice.
