So, any credit company should be forced to take on bad creditors?

Holy logic leaps Batman!

That was a big one!
 


Yeah this is kind of getting to the point I was asking about before: is content being targeted just for being LGBTQ+, or does there just happen to be a high overlap between it and NSFW, and so it seems like LGBTQ+ is being targeted?
I think the issue is that it's associated with a movement that wants to maliciously trick and trap people into traditional relationships and attacking LGBTQ is a part of that
 

Credit card companies, on the other hand, provide financial services, extending credit and facilitating payments,
To clarify: Visa and Mastercard don't just offer credit. They facilitate payments, and most banks and financial institutions rely on them. It's not just credit cards--every debit card I've had in the last 20 years has had a Visa or Mastercard logo on it. The bank cards for my personal and business accounts all have Mastercard or Visa logos on them. If Mastercard and Visa were to withdraw their service from me, I--and my business--would be unable to function without using physical cash. It would put me out of business, and make daily life really inconvenient. There aren't other options.

Fortunately, Visa and Mastercard have not--as yet--decided they disapprove of my grocery shopping choices or the products sold by my business. But should they have the power to ruin my life because they don't like what I buy? Or because they disapprove of some element of my identity?
 



But also you can't spend it at Tesco's.
Sorry. I'm just spitballing ideas.

In any case, an increasing number of places are taking it, even if not necessarily tesco. I could cut out mastercard where I can and only deal with them where I need to.

In the long run though, I do still think I need to look into getting a different bank with a non-visa, non-mastercard debit card

Do they exist? I don't know where you are, but all the high street banks here in the UK use those. Maybe some of those posh banks which charge you to bank with them have some other way of doing it, but I'm not sure the pay terminals in the shops and ATMs will work if you don't have a Visa or Mastercard logo on your card. And Amex isn't taken anywhere.

They used to have an alternative here called 'Switch' (debit only) but I haven't seen that in years. Maybe it was phased out.
