Credit Card Blues: Part Three

Its official, all the banks have gone nuts. HSBC, quite eloquently, denied me a credit card saying:

"We regret to inform you that we would not be able to issue you an HSBC credit card as your credit profile is not in line with out prevailing lending policy."

Credit Card blues: Part Deux

The plot gets thicker. HSBC called me with all their over-enuthsiasm, offers me revolutionary packages (or atleast that's what they say) for next to nothing. "Sir, believe me, the process is easy, just two documents and you are done." So inevitably, Im sucked into their vortex.

I recieve a call today saying there's a courier waiting for me at home, from HSBC. I run from office to pick up. Finally, I get a credit card. Its here. The courier hands me the package and Im in utter disbelief. Its not a credit card. Its not even a rejection letter. Its a DVD of the movie Fashion.

I mean really guys, why give me grass when I really a want a horse.

Atleast hopefully, the next courier will be a credit card.
