So, are you actually working at Chase or do you just have some business there, like a loan or something?

I can't believe I'm even typing this, but here we go again. Another day, another absolute circus in this country. It’s like nobody is actually in charge anymore, and everyone is just winging it while the rest of us deal with the fallout. Honestly, I’m losing my mind. kaže:
Look, let’s get one thing straight: no shop is going to hand you groceries if the power is out and they can't ring you up. Period. No business owner is going to risk a massive fine from the IRS just to be nice to some random customer. Every time the grid goes down, shops shut their doors. I’ve never once seen anyone walk into a store with dead registers and actually walk out with a bag of food. It just doesn't happen.

Oh, I definitely have. More times than I care to admit. Half the time our power grid is such a joke that the lights just cut out whenever they feel like it, yet somehow the local grocery store still manages to sell stuff without any issues... Anyway, since we’re talking about the law, it doesn't matter if you know the customer or not. It's all the same. 😉

Look, I never said they wouldn't give me a bill. All I meant was that they’re going to scribble it by hand on some little paper slip first, and then they'll just upload it to the system later once the power actually kicks in.

I don't even know where to start with this one. It’s absolute madness. You see people out there acting like everything is fine, like the systems we rely on aren't completely broken, and it honestly makes my blood boil. I was sitting there the other day, just trying to get some basic stuff done online, and I realized how much we take for granted until it all hits the fan. It’s the same old story every single time. People ignore the red flags because it’s easier than actually dealing with the mess. Well, newsflash: ignoring the problem doesn't make it go away. It just makes the eventual crash a hell of a lot harder to handle. I'm sick of the excuses and I'm definitely sick of the incompetence. We need to wake up and actually face what's happening before we're all left staring at a blank screen wondering where it all went wrong. Enough is enough! Sarah Ruiz42 says:
When is this actually happening? Is the whole country going down? Honestly, who knows. The outage was localized to just one region, and it all traces back to AT&T and their mess with Google.

So what does it matter to me that there’s power somewhere else in the middle of nowhere? It doesn't mean a damn thing! My shop out here in this tiny rural town is sitting in total darkness, and the next nearest outlet is miles away. Absolute joke. 6.2 miles And then what? What's next?

I don't even know where to start with this one. It’s honestly infuriating how much people miss the point. You see these discussions pop up constantly, and it's like everyone is just shouting into a void without actually thinking for two seconds. I’ve had enough of the mindless repetition. If you aren't willing to look at the facts, why are you even talking? Seriously, it's exhausting. kaže:
It absolutely drives me insane when people pull this stunt at the register. You know the one—they pull out a massive wad of cash, shove the whole thing toward the cashier, and say, "Just take whatever." Like, seriously? We aren’t in some old Western movie. It’s awkward, it’s unnecessary, and it makes everyone stand there like idiots. And don't even get me started on the other extreme. You’re standing in line at a Starbucks or a CVS, and the person in front of you starts digging through their wallet like they’re searching for buried treasure. They’re hunting for loose change, counting nickels, checking every single pocket just to cover a few bucks. It takes forever! I’ve got places to be, and I don't need to spend my entire morning watching someone struggle with a handful of pennies. Just use a card and move it along!

That’s a total lie. You can bet your life that paying with cash is lightyears faster than any card transaction. While the system is busy processing your chip or waiting for some signal from AT&T, you've already missed out. There's nothing like handing a cashier actual bills—they grab it, they take it, and they're done. It's faster and more precise than any digital nonsense. I see it every single time I'm out; people fumbling with their wallets while the line builds up behind them. Cash just wins.

Seriously, since when did everyone get so damn arrogant? Where the hell are you all rushing to that every single millisecond matters? Give it a rest with these idiotic delusions of grandeur...

I don't even know where to start with this nonsense. It’s like nobody actually thinks before they open their mouths anymore. I was sitting there yesterday, just trying to get through my morning coffee, and I overheard some guy at the diner spewing the exact same kind of garbage. It’s exhausting. You try to have a logical conversation about how things work in this country, and people just shut down or start shouting about things they clearly don't understand. Honestly, it's infuriating. We need more common sense and a lot less noise. kaže:
Honestly, if you ask me, they’ve gone ahead and killed off cash too. It’s just another way to squeeze people, especially here in this mess of a region where everyone is constantly trying to pull a fast one on you.

I’d scrap credit cards entirely if I had my way. It would be so much fairer for everyone involved. Business would actually be affordable for small companies again, instead of getting squeezed by fees. We’d see way fewer people getting ripped off, fewer endless lawsuits clogging up the courts, and honestly? Just more happy people and way fewer legal loan sharks running the show.

Charles Ramos7 said:Does it really matter if they count as a primary payment method? All I care about is making sure they don't hit me with an extra fee.

That’s not quite how it works. It isn't bundled into a membership fee, because people pay that flat rate regardless of whether they use their card once or a hundred times. If it were part of a subscription, those high spenders would be stuck paying even higher monthly fees.

Exactly! They don't overcharge, sure, but the law says if you pay cash, they have to give you back every single cent of your change. I couldn't care less about credit cards—I use them just like everyone else—but we're talking about hard cash here. We're talking about why some people want to ban it entirely and the actual legality of the whole situation.

Man, you clearly aren't listening to a word I'm saying.

Card volume has nothing to do with the membership fee (that's why everyone pays the SAME flat rate), but that fee *includes* the COST OF MAKING THE CARD. So, the second you pay that fee, the card isn't free. Period. And yet, I've got people here trying to convince me otherwise.🤣🤣🤣

I don't know what to tell you. Some people just refuse to see what's right in front of their faces. It’s like talking to a brick wall sometimes. I’ve dealt with this before—remember that headache last summer when I was trying to deal with the DMV? Absolute nightmare. Same energy. People just want to stay comfortable in their own little bubble instead of facing reality. It's infuriating. I can't even begin to tell you how much this gets under my skin. Honestly, it’s enough to make me want to throw my phone across the room. I was sitting there just minding my own business when I saw it, and now I’m absolutely fuming. It’s like people just don't care about common sense anymore. Everything is just a mess!
Exactly. I get every single cent back without any hassle at all. 👍

Look, I get the whole thing about the credit cards, but it’s pretty obvious you’re totally missing the point on this part. Look, let's get one thing straight: credit cards aren't actually legal tender in this country. You can go to a shop and they can absolutely refuse to swipe your plastic if they feel like it. It’s a total joke. I tried using my card at a small diner outside of Austin last week, and the owner basically told me to pull out some cash or walk away. No apology, no nothing. People act like it's a right to be able to pay with a piece of plastic, but legally? It just isn't.Look, it’s just one single service from the bank where you hold your account. That's it.

Look, you can't just take these cards—any of them!—and treat them like some kind of universal blueprint or a rulebook for how to act. It’s ridiculous.

Let’s talk about "due process"—that concept everyone loves to preach about until they actually have to follow it. In the real world? It doesn't exist. We're talking about straight-up lawbreaking here, plain and simple.

I can't even deal with this right now. Seriously. Every time I log on, there’s some new nonsense going on that makes me want to put my head through a wall. It's constant. Just endless, repetitive garbage. Does anyone else feel like we're just circling the drain here? Because I definitely do. I'm about two seconds away from throwing my laptop out the window. Honestly, it's exhausting. kaže:
Life isn't a freaking buffet where everything is handed to you on a silver platter. You want things? You gotta go out there and grab them. It doesn't just happen by magic.

Look, Pladner and the rest of them are full of it, and you’re still out here digging for excuses. You’ve backed yourself into a corner with that claim of yours, and now you can't back it up to save your life. Honestly? I don't even care anymore. At the end of the day, my stance is clear: There is no such thing as a free credit card. Period. Stop falling for it! Look, I don't have anything left to prove. Period. You can go ahead and hunt for all the deep philosophies, excuses, or "interpretations" you want just to make yourself feel right, but newsflash: you aren't going to find a single thing that actually works.

I can't believe I'm even typing this, but someone had to say it. I am absolutely fed up with the constant nonsense we have to deal with lately. It feels like every time you turn around, there's some new hurdle or some ridiculous rule designed just to make life harder for everyone else. Honestly, it’s exhausting. I was sitting at my kitchen table this morning, staring at my coffee, just thinking about how much energy we waste fighting these pointless battles. It makes me want to scream! We deserve better than this constant headache. kaže:
How's it going? I am so sick of this. Seriously, I cannot deal with how much of a headache credit cards have become lately. It’s like every time you turn around, there's some new fee, a new security glitch, or some ridiculous policy that makes it impossible to actually use your own damn money. I was trying to grab a coffee downtown yesterday—just a simple transaction, right?—and the card reader decided to take a nap. Then, instead of just working, it flags the whole thing like I’m trying to pull some heist. It’s infuriating! You pay your bills, you play by the rules, and yet the system treats you like a criminal half the time. I’m tellin' ya, it feels like they’re just looking for any excuse to squeeze another couple of bucks out of us. Total joke. I finally got to it. Credit cards. Honestly, what a complete scam. I was looking at my statements the other day and nearly lost it. It’s like these banks just sit there waiting for you to make one tiny mistake so they can bleed you dry with interest rates that feel more like highway robbery than actual finance. I remember back when I first started working in Chicago, I thought I was being smart using a card for everything to build up my score. Big mistake. One month I bought a new grill for the backyard—totally worth it, by the way—and suddenly I'm staring down a mountain of interest that makes no sense. You think you're in control, but then you realize the house always wins. They design these things specifically to keep you trapped in a cycle of debt. It's infuriating. Be careful out there, seriously. Don't let them get a foothold on your wallet.? 😵 Maybe that would actually explain why your answers are so damn confusing and flat-out wrong.

Wait, excuse me? Where on earth does it say we were only talking about debit cards??

Are you seriously digging up philosophy books just to prove you're right? Give me a break.

And don't even get me started on those "free" debit cards. They aren't actually free! They hit you with a monthly maintenance fee, and if you look closely at the fine print in your contract, they basically admit that the card cost is buried right inside that service charge. So, it’s not like it's some kind of gift—it's just a total scam. It's like saying a meal is free when they've already padded the cover charge to pay for it. Absolute garbage.

I don't know what to tell you people. I’ve seen some nonsense in my time, but this takes the cake. It’s like nobody actually thinks before they open their mouths anymore. Just mindless noise. Honestly, it makes me want to throw my phone across the room. Fix your logic or stop posting. kaže:
If everything moves to electricity and high-speed internet, then bills basically vanish. You won't have a paper statement sitting on your counter, and you definitely won't have the option to just drop off cash at a local branch. At least, not if you want to stay on the right side of the law.
The real issue with credit cards? It’s all about people who just can't control themselves. Seriously.

Look, it’s perfectly legal. A voucher or a receipt is still a valid way to pay, especially when you process it electronically after the fact. It’s not some shady workaround; it’s how things work. Honestly, every single corner store in a city like Chicago or Philly handles transactions this way whenever the power goes out. They aren't breaking any laws—they're just keeping the lights on.

Look, when you’ve got cold hard cash sitting right in front of you, you don't need to hold back. But honestly, that leads us down some deep, messy rabbit holes that have nothing to do with how we actually pay for things.

David Garcia21 said:I’m not enabling anyone. Every single time, I get my money back without any hassle or wasted time. Ever heard of efficiency?

If you're so sure about that, feel free to pay for them yourself.🙄

You don't get anything back. When you pay by card, they charge you down to the last cent, but cards—unlike cash—aren't actually legal tender in this country. It’s not a rule; it’s just a service provided by whatever bank you use.

Look, I’ve been around the block for fifty years, using both cards and cash, and it’s just plain wrong to say cards give you an advantage or make things faster.

For instance, when I hit a Shell station, I pull out $33, toss it on the counter, and I'm done. By the time someone finishes swiping their plastic, I’m already five miles down the road... Cash doesn't get declined (and it shouldn't!), and it doesn't care if the power goes out or the Wi-Fi dies. I’m not risking spending money I don't have or stuff that isn't mine. Especially since some banks make their cards out of cheap junk anyway. My son handles tons of card transactions daily, and he has plenty of horror stories that prove your "peace of mind" is a total lie...

Oh yeah? Why don't you tell us exactly what that "rule" is, so we can shut you down right now.

Charles Ramos7 said:They only make that money off people who don't pay attention to their receipts.

Really? And does that "financial genius" over here get his exact change back, or do they just pocket it? Stop talking nonsense. We aren't idiots, and we don't need you lecturing us on how money works...

We aren't even talking about the amount of money here; we're talking about a legal principle that's being ignored. That whole idea of "getting paid exactly to the cent" only works when you use cards, but cards aren't the primary legal way to pay. They don't even need to be, but you clearly can't grasp why, because you're too wrapped up in your own smug little bubble thinking nothing can ever touch you.

Charles Ramos7 said:What do you mean, interest rates? You only end up paying those if you actually use a revolving credit line.

Give me a break. You pay interest on EVERY single credit card loan, but you don't pay it on debit cards—assuming you're actually staying in the black and not digging a hole in your checking account. And even if they don't call it "interest," they just wrap it up in some other stupid fee, like a monthly "maintenance charge" or whatever... look, you're always paying something. Don't try to play dumb and act like you're the only one who understands how these cards work. We aren't idiots.

David Garcia21 said:Three days? It's not like the Constitution is a massive novel.
Stop making statements and just ask a question.

Same here with people digging through their wallets looking for change. "I don't have it," "Wait, there it is," dropping coins on the floor, the cashier grabbing them from the customer, or insisting on exact change. Or when someone shows up with a $167, and there's no cash to make change, so they're running to the next register or hunting down the manager...

There is.

Honestly, you’re just enabling a disorganized system. In places like Germany or Austria, even if prices end in .99, you actually get that penny back! I have never once experienced anyone trying to shortchange me by a cent because everything in this damn country is "rounded" to the nearest .99. Between those tiny margins, Walton and his crew probably rake in enough profit in a single day at a massive Walmart to cover everyone's entire payroll.

No, it doesn't. Not a single one of them is actually free. Even those prepaid cards aren't truly free, and with credit cards, the interest rates they charge are absolutely insane.

Sure, they might offer it "without an annual fee" for the first year, but they'll get you on the interest. By the second year, you're totally screwed—you're stuck paying everything from membership fees to high interest. Banks are living proof that the things labeled "free" are usually the most expensive traps out there.

rowdypilot19 said:But honestly, even those long-term savings accounts get hit with negative interest rates too. 🤣

I mean, why would they even care about your money, when they can just print more whenever they feel like it?

It’s not really like they’re forcing you to withdraw everything... it's more like they're nudging you to spend it instead. Because if you don't, then that negative interest kicks in. And once that happens, I guess you won't even be able to get your hands on your own cash.

That’s total nonsense. They can't just print money out of thin air because the big commercial banks don't handle the printing presses.

The whole game is rigged to make you either blow your cash or lend it out so they can use your money against you.

It’s honestly disgusting how these banks act like some kind of organized crime syndicate. They pull this incredibly arrogant, shady routine where they design services specifically to screw you over—it's always your fault when things go south, while they walk away with all the profit. It’s getting genuinely scary at this point, because there clearly isn't a limit to their greed or the blackmail tactics they use just to feed it.

Saying that going all-in on credit cards is the "right" move is just plain wrong. I don't care what anyone says—I have every right to keep my spending habits private. Nobody needs to know exactly what I’m buying, when I’m buying it, or how much I’m dropping on it. Honestly, thinking everyone should just swipe away is incredibly selfish and narrow-minded. Most people out there aren't sitting on endless bank balances or massive credit lines just so they can act "cool" and swipe without a second thought. I refuse to let the government or some corporate bureaucrats breathing down my neck monitor every single thing I eat, drink, or buy. Plus, let's be real: cards are a magnet for data breaches and identity theft. With cash, what you see is what you get. You can't get screwed over by a digital glitch or a hacker when you're holding actual money.

It’s pretty obvious some people just aren't grasping the point of this article... because the whole thing is about Sweden. It has absolutely nothing to do with America. But of course, people immediately start drawing these "what if" parallels to what might happen here in the States... so any speculation about banning cash in America is a total off-topic tangent from the actual piece, which, let me say it again, is strictly about Sweden...

Pretty much. Most people have always been idiots. Even Hitler laid it out clearly in "Mein Kampf"—he just weaponized that exact reality to stay in power, just like the politicians we see today.

It didn't happen overnight, but it was basically the systematic execution of common sense by a bunch of mindless sheep.

We aren't usually a dim-witted people.

Sarah Morris57 said:Look, the local bars totally won that fight over the smoking ban—it’s spreading everywhere now—and honestly? If they tried to push a cashless-only rule, I bet they'd jump on that bandwagon just as fast. We’d probably be sitting around waiting for some tiny developing nation halfway across the world to go fully digital before we even considered making the switch here in the States.
Just look at how "great" the tax reporting is going... people around here will always find a way to dodge the system, no matter what.

Bars didn't "win" anything. They were allowed to have smokers in there one way or another from the start. And as for tax compliance? It's the same story. Every single law passed in this country is riddled with loopholes that were left there on purpose. If they actually wrote decent laws, nobody would be able to outsmart the system...

The real problem with a move like banning cash is that it wouldn't be decided by our pathetic, lazy, and incompetent Congress. It would be forced on us by someone outside the US, likely coming from a mandate at the EU level.

Sarah Morris57 said:Seriously, just try buying a coffee or even grabbing lunch at half the spots around here without using cash—then come back and tell me how that went.
Most shops and big retailers let you swipe a credit card or use your debit card, no problem, but once you step outside that bubble... man, small businesses deal with so much hassle just trying to set it up. Plus, you’ve still got a massive crowd of retirees and folks who aren't exactly tech-savvy—people who find an ATM intimidating and would rather wait in line at a Chase branch just to withdraw $67 (I swear, I run into at least two people like that every single time I'm out in NYC), let alone trying to manage their whole lives through some plastic card and tracking digital statements...

Sure, it works now, but if they actually passed a law banning cash? Everything would fall apart.

As if the government gives a damn about that... honestly, cards might actually be better for seniors anyway, since they wouldn't have to sit there shaking while they try to count out every single cent and dime.

Why wouldn't it happen? As if they’re actually going to ask for our permission. Like they give a damn about whether you have a mountain of cash stashed away if they just ban cash payments entirely. They want to pull all physical money out of circulation and force us into this total surveillance trap where every single cent we own is tracked through cards and digital systems. That way, the government and the big banks have a direct line of sight into everything we possess. And honestly, that’s exactly what they’re aiming for—total control over every bit of wealth we have, just so they can seize it, tax it, or use it to manipulate us whenever they feel like it.

So, from what I can see, Zillow is just sending out notices telling you to show up at the bank instead of actually giving you the questionnaire you need to fill out...

Since when does a bank actually send stuff through the mail?

Banks are legally required to report anyone they have a damn good reason to suspect of money laundering or terror financing directly to FinCEN...

But let's be real: this bank clearly isn't sending a single thing to any government database. I mean, a centralized system *has* to exist—just look at how FINCEN operates under the oversight of the IRS and the Department of the Treasury. There has to be a massive registry for money laundering, just like there's a database managed by CBP for tracking anyone trying to move unauthorized cash through a bank (you know, those suspicious transfers over $10,000 regardless of whether they're declared or not).

Sarah Morris57 said:So, my first promotional email from JPMorgan Chase finally hit my inbox today.
I mean, I can totally just unsubscribe from the list, but they sure took their sweet time—like, two whole weeks—to actually make it happen...
The thing is, they’ve had my email address forever, and I already opted out of all those "special offers" ages ago (not that I have any actual proof, obviously!), but now suddenly it’s all starting up again. It’s almost like it perfectly coincided with those surveys they were sending out... what a coincidence, right?

They came after my wife now, too. She’s got this $5,000 loan over at Zab that’s already like three-quarters paid off, so what's the big idea? Our main bank is RBA, so they should have left us alone.

I called their toll-free customer service line to figure out what the hell was going on. Right off the bat, the automated system starts droning on about that whole FATCA nonsense—just leaves you sitting there like an idiot for several minutes while you wait. I just wanted to get some actual answers. Who exactly is out here vacuuming up all this data? What kind of info are they actually grabbing? And if we're talking about legal requirements, shouldn't it be enough for just my primary bank at JPMorgan Chase to handle the heavy lifting? It feels like overkill.

The data is always the same, and it all boils down to legal requirements—meaning the government is supposed to have oversight and control over that database. It’s not like I have anything but a single loan at JPMorgan Chase anyway; there aren't any other transactions to speak of. I just pay my monthly installment online, and that's it. $200 So you just transfer the money from RBA over to Zab and that’s the end of it! What kind of freaking terrorism is this? Money laundering? Give me a break! God, I wish I actually had enough cash to even have to "brag" about any of this stuff! Is the transfer happening or what? $200 Transferring money to another bank account every single month—is that money laundering? Or is it just a tiny little contribution to help some terrorist buy a box of ammo?

I finally said it to the officials—I asked them straight up. Listen, if my wife and I are juggling loans—or whatever kind of "business relationship" we have going on—across five different banks, do I seriously need to be filing declarations at every single one of them?

My wife totally lost her train of thought. She started off with that classic, "I just have one quick question," then she vanished for a minute to clear her head. When she finally came back, she gave me this incredibly forced, overly polite little nod like she was trying to negotiate a peace treaty. It was hilarious. I don't care what other banks are asking for—she needs to get her act together and handle this right in front of a Zab branch!"I told them right then and there..."So, who exactly is all this data being collected for? Look, if everything is strictly following the law and matches the records held by the government—since the state signs these agreements as a whole, not some random individual bank acting on its own—then there’s already one massive database for tracking money launderers and terrorists. The government runs it, and they let the banks access it whenever they need to. It’s the exact same setup as FinCEN, where banks dump their data into the system only for other banks or the government to pull it right back out when they need it. Same game, different day.

Look, we haven't heard a single word from my main bank, or any other bank for that matter. It’s ridiculous. Every single month when I go to withdraw cash and show my ID, I am LITERALLY confirming that my information is current and hasn't changed. I'm literally signing off on it right then and there! It’s crystal clear to me now that this whole questionnaire thing—which she called a "glitch"—is just something every bank handles however they feel like. They’re doing it for their own internal reasons, not because anyone actually forced them to by law!

I already asked! What kind of info are they actually looking for? Seriously, what do they need from you?Look, we can just call them up and confirm that the info they’re collecting is exactly what they’re authorized to have. I mean, come on—we get statements sent straight to our houses and our emails, we show them our driver's licenses with our addresses every single time, and they’ve got our cell numbers. That proves they already have the data! Besides, they aren't even touching our private business. When it comes to paying off a loan, the bank doesn't give a damn how many kids we have or whether my wife or I just got a promotion at work. As long as I'm consistently hitting their monthly payment deadlines, they don't need to know anything else about our lives. It's not like it matters to them! What they’re legally required to know? They already KNOW!

The clerk on the other end just sat there through all my rants, staring at me blankly. Then she hit me with that classic, mindless banking script—like a broken record stuck on loop—insisting that "the wife still has to come into the branch to sign the questionnaire." Yeah, good luck waiting for that to happen. 😉😉

It’s so obvious what these banks are doing. They use the massive crowds and the sheer volume of paperwork to sneak in their own creepy, invasive questionnaires right alongside the ones they’re actually legally required to hand out. They claim it's all about complying with FATCA regulations, but let’s call it what it really is. They use "fighting terrorism" as some kind of pathetic excuse to justify total surveillance. It’s just a way for the big players—the Rothschilds and those other financial criminals—to maintain a stranglehold on everyone. They want eyes on every single cent, every piece of property, and every scrap of private data you own. They hide their own sick obsession with prying into our lives behind a wall of legal obligations. It's nothing but a power grab disguised as regulation.

Look, based on that first mandatory requirement and the second one laid out by the government, it’s crystal clear what data they actually need to collect. And let's be real—JPMorgan Chase already has all that info sitting in their system. You couldn't even dream of opening an account without handing it over in the first place... anything beyond that is just banks acting like they own us.

Probably not. Actually, I'm pretty sure it isn't.

That's exactly why I'm opening a business account somewhere overseas for my future ventures. 👍
