"In fact, Netflix won’t even accept debit cards or prepaid cards."?? I have been using a debit card on my Netflix account since 2005.

Also, ever heard of Arco? You can pay at the pump with cash. OK fine, you have to step 4 feet to the machine that takes cash, pheww that must be hard.

I have a netflix account with a debit card. I dont own a credit card. Need to double check your research.

The best place to get it removed and you can do it yourself is http://www.icancleanupmycredit.com/download-now.php and all the forms are there and its cheap they give you everything you need to do it and instructions. I did it myself and got things deleted and dates changes and it brought my score up majorly.

Good luck!

Look, i don't agree many times of being charged a processing fee, and some credit card issuers don't either which is why they dont asses one. And so i always look for credit card issuers with minimum or no fees assesed. And also, to me, a credit card is equivalent to paying off another semi-expensive utility bill or something. Many issuers do not require you to have good or perfect credit which is the ones i look for, even if i have good or perfect credit. Creidt cards seem to best thrive at times when you dont get paid for a while and you have to make a very importtant purchase. You dont want to borrow, and don't have any cash, NOT PURCHASING THE PRODUCT, OR A CREDIT CARD IS YOUR NEXT OPTION IF YOU OWN ONE.

For me, it's strictly cash or checks. The best way to avoid debt is to have a conscious transfer of money for purchases. With cards, money is just make believe. Studies have proven spending increases by 30% when cards are used versus when cash is used. Good for the economy? Maybe. Good for your personal financial status? Probably not.
