Please not synchronicity.

Going to Amex I believe.

[–] bartturner@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That was the rumor. BUt lets hope that does not happen. If does then I can't use it any longer.

I live half my time in South East Asia and Amex is not taken there at 90% of places.

Apple could be the bank themselves if they wanted

SoFi should make a pitch?

[–] kevpnw@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

SoFi can’t even manage to fix their own credit card issues, and their card is underwritten by another bank.

[–] ejpusa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ok. So SoFi is off the list.

Is there anything after the paywall or is the whole thing just a couple paragraphs?

[–] Objective_Ticket@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is it coming to the uk yet?

[–] neutralpoliticsbot@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

With the amount of cash Apple is sitting on they should just open their own bank or buy one

[–] firelitother@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Being a bank opens Apple to a lot of regulations and liabilities.

Apple pulls plug with Goldman Sachs? I think it was the other way around, Goldman Sachs pulls the plug

I’ve stopped using most other cards and use my Apple card exclusively. No international fees, cashback and works everywhere. Been a great experience since day 1

Please do NOT switch to American Express. I travel a lot and AmEx is worthless in South East Asia.

[–] thekiller1217@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This mean my crippling debt goes too?

[–] medievalmachine@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

LOL Goldman bailed. They lost a ton of money. And then Apple found out that they had enough leverage to foist it off on someone else. Then Apple 'pulls plug'.

See, their greed is starting to become Walmart-esque, where they burn all their suppliers.
