Equifax does business by tracking reputations, as do all credit reporting companies. That's how a free market handles bad checks.
Yes, and if I'd *ever* written a bad check, it would be a different story. The weasel there basically said that because I'd made purchases there in the past few days, they tried to contact my bank on a Sunday afternoon.... (No, I don't get it either) But that still doesn't answer whether or not a credit card can be requested when paying by check. -- |\/|ike Gurski mgursk1@umbc.edu http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~mgursk1/ finger/mail subject "send pgpkey"|"send index" Hail Eris! -><- O- |Member, 1024/39B5BADD PGP Keyprint=3493 A994 B159 48B7 1757 1E4E 6256 4570 | Team My opinions are mine alone, even if you should be sharing them. | OS/2 Senate Finance Committee Chair, SGA 1996-1997
