Has anybody got a whole *bunch* of tinfoil hats for the ACLU? :rolleyes:
A pizza joint by my place answers by saying my name, and they know what I always order because their computer pulls it up. This isn't that far off.

Hogwash. Most companies can't even get their *OWN* data integrated, much less data from thousands of disparate sources. The pizza place knows your name and what you order because they keep track of it and have caller ID. :rolleyes:

I'll send you a tinfoil hat, too. :D

You should see what your credit card company knows about you, or even if you have a loyalty card at a large supermarket.

What does the credit card company know about me that would surprise me? What I buy? What my SSN is? Am I likely to be shocked and horrified by the information they have?

I don't think I really have that much interesting info............. :D

Actually your credit report can really hurt you and 1 in 4 credit reports is wrong and will unfairly impact you financially. 1 in 4 accuracy is completely unacceptable.

There is currently lobbying effort to get these credit reporting companies in line.

WTF has this got to do with my question? What does my credit *CARD* company know about me that is going to horrify me?

And yes, I check my credit report 3x a year and no, there have never been any misinformation. :rolleyes:

Your CC affects your credit report.

Yeah. Thanks for that earth shattering information.

Could you try answering the question I posed? Or do you not have any input and are just randomly spewing forth information? :D
Well if companies share or sell information about you without your authorization or via sneaky contracts they are violating your privacy rights which is the point of the cartoon at the start of this thread. Do you like spam, being suspected of something you are not, or nosey people in general?

Spam costs something like $2000/year/employee with a 3% loss of productivity.

KAI RYSSDAL: Have you ever gone to buy a car or some other big ticket item and only then discovered you have a terrible credit history? And you stand there trying to figure out what's going on because you always pay your bills on time. And finally it dawns on you that the credit agency just flat got it wrong.

Happens a lot.

So much, in fact, that the government's trying to fix it. Monday's the deadline for public comments on the new rules. Consultant Amelia Tyagi offers hers, right now.

AMELIA TYAGI: Did you know that a whopping 25 percent of credit reports — that's one in four — has a mistake that's big enough for you to get charged extra on a loan? Or rejected for a job? Or turned down for car insurance...

A computer that pulls up what I ordered last time I called. Wow, I guess that is just way too far off in the future.:clue:

How do they rate for a pizza chain?

This one is pretty decent compared to dominos, papa john, pizza hut, etc:

It's very good California style pizza. Chicken and fresh basil leaves on wheat crust rules!

I've heard of Hell but never eaten their pizza. They took some flack for some of their advertising featuring a photo of George W. and the headline: "Hell: Too Good For Some Evil Bastards."

:rofl:

I don't think most of the people in NZ would care that much :think:

There was a great place nearby that was going to go chain called the American Pizza Kitchen (like the California Pizza Kitchen chain) but it had financial troubles and failed to lift off. Awesome pizza, bar, and food though!
