 I. FUCKING. HATE. CREDIT CARDS.

IT IS MY PERSONAL MISSION IN LIFE TO DESTROY THEM.

THEY'VE STOLEN OVER 2 BTC FROM ME

 How've they stolen from you?  
 Dispute fees and charge backs 
 Oh fr? Like customers claim their charges aren't valid?  
 Yes. And even if it turns out they just forgot, I am still charged a dispute fee when I win the case 
 It's the reason we decided not to accept credit cards for my business. We do interact etransfers or cash. It's too bad my business partner is a staunch anti Bitcoiner...  
 Cut out the middleman🤙🏼 
 they asked for my marriage certificate once, because I was sending money too often to my wife. 

I eventually bent the knee and probably lost my inner peace forever 
 Citibank emailed to tell me they closed my creditcard and sent me a letter asking me to open a new account.

I was a good client for them from 2013 never missed a payment.

I called them and told them they could have just froze my account but by closing it, it hurt my fico score.

I told them it was clear they did not give a shit about me as a client and i would never do business with them again.

And they should buy #bitcoin, they are going to need it. 
 Credit cards are like an STD you get when you're in an abusive toxic relationship with a bank. 
 I hope you succeed. Bitcoin is so much better  at all levels, except the UX.
