Anyone who uses a 'credit card' may be considered poor then if they're having to borrow money.

Your historical knowledge is poor. Traditionally the rich have lived on credit, paying the tradesmen and suppliers long after goods and services have been received, if ever. Suggested reading "Vanity Fair" by William Makepeace.

What about those of us who are simply collecting airmiles, or using credit cards for the consumer protection? Or are we to assume the Thistle Hotel Heathrow only takes cash, and charges by the hour?

I had a Visa card failure last weekend.

I couldn't remember the PIN

For some odd reason Barclays stopped issuing Mastercards so now I've got two Visa cards instead.

Both of which would have been useless.

Just as well I pay cash for most things.

My visa card works fine. However it is a platinum card.

Maybe you are too poor?

It’s a means of entry into places. The card is particularly useful with old Yale locks.

Isn't it about time Uncle Fagin Admin gave you a pay rise to save you having to develop such skills?

what happened to your Amex Platinum?
