I’ve always bought used cars, and refurbed Macs. Just how I roll …

I never use a dealership’s banking service, and feel the same about financing a Mac (I also wouldn’t use Dell or HP’s financing).

But never really thought about the separation of concerns benefit, with respect to financing through the same company that provides critical services.

Now that seems like a good call.

Not saying anything about the details of the original post, except that whether he’s completely right or wrong he’d never run into something this catastrophic if he’d used (almost?) any other credit card.
