You cannot trust any US company any longer…they are basically all creepy
That’s why the only safe software in the long term is Free Software.
Corpo apps are like
“Do you love me? Rate 5 stars?”
No I don’t love you. How about zero stars for sexual harassment? Do I need to talk to HR?
Fucking within like 2 minutes of using their apps too, they ask, “do you like the app?” Then another popup that says, “provide feedback for why you don’t like our app?”
Because you keep getting in the way of me actually doing what I need to do. And it’s getting uninstalled as soon as I’m done with it.
It’s to the point where no one wants to do shit on their website anymore. They force you to download the app. So they can get even more access and control of your info. And like I need more motherfucking apps on my goddamn home screens. Fuck that shit.
Well, this sucks. PayPal was great for only having your credit card information in one place - now it looks like I’ll have to risk it with every website.
This has me seriously considering using a company like privacy.com to just create random CC numbers per sketchy website.
Revolut does that, but far cheaper.
Good to know, I’ll check them out as well! Thank you
Privacydotcom is free Does revolut pay you to use it?
Thought they charged something to put $ on temp card, via EFT though I may well be wrong.
Don’t recall the org name I conflated w them anymore u fortunately.
And from where I sit, yeah they pay me to some degree - the acct costs me nothing, and it’s got a handful of the usual “edge case” insurance benefits and such most debit cards don’t.
Not real useful to me, admittedly, but I do receive something.
That, and they reliably post direct deposit exactly 48h early, plus or minus fifteen minutes. Ability to plan my life around when exactly my check will show up has value. Seems to be very much a “best effort” basis to post early w/ most banks.
Lots of that stuff is useful because of my individual habits and patterns of spending I’m sure, might well not be for you.
Will check out privacy, now I’m kind of curious if there is something even more friction free for my scenario.
I like the concept if disposable CC numbers, but looks like i need to link both to my bank account. Anything like this that can link to another credit card?
There is it. The main reason why Honey exists.
