Seriously hate this bullshit credit score scam.
Because it’s easier to repossess a TV than dental work
I got approved for a $250,000 house but not $1000 for my teeth lmao.
Look into Care Credit if you’re in the US.
Also, that Best Buy credit card can be used for dental work.
Carrying balance on it is border line financial suicide.
Right but OP makes it sound like he thinks a Best Buy credit card is only good at Best Buy.
Other cards like Care Credit may offer no interest for a period of time (Best Buy’s Citi card only offers that for Best Buy purchases). Best Buy also used to have two cards, one was a store card that could only be used at Best Buy, and the other one the Citi card. Not sure if the store card is still offered.
Some store cards come in 2 varieties and are not visa/Mastercard, etc, and will only work at the named store.
Usually, a card branded only for the store requires lower credit scores vs. an actual Visa/MC etc.
Because we are all enslaved to some degree.
People hate this language due to history of chattel slavery but it is the same regime people… Why would you think their MO would change once chattel slavery was out lawed lol
Always remember that Credit Score was invented by banks in the 70s so they could continue to deny blacks and women loans based on race/sex without directly refrencing their race/sex because it became illegal to do so.
Credit Scores shouldn’t exist.
Credit card for dental work sounds quite american
You can always get credit, the only question is how much will it cost.
If you’re asking why does Best Buy offers credit cards and your dentist doesn’t, it’s because Best Buy might not get your sale. They want you to see the product and buy the product and if you don’t have the money they want you to borrow the money without leaving the store. It’s all about reducing friction between your wallet and their register.
Your dentist doesn’t need to reduce those obstacles to purchasing. You need dental work, and they bill you. If you can’t pay, that’s a you problem.
Because you love in the US.
