Free Stuff???

Are there any websites that give out free stuff? I%26#039;ve tried gaminglagoon and prizerebel, but neither have been successful. I do not want to use a credit card either. If someone could offer some advice or just tell me to stop wasting my time I would appreciate it!!!



Also, i don%26#039;t know if this is in the right category, so if it isn%26#039;t I%26#039;m sorry.



Free Stuff???payday loan





Its not in the right one but i would like to give an answer....



Dude, i check out a lot of sites, just because i was bored to death...And let me tell you, i haven%26#039;t found one that doesn%26#039;t have a catch, nothing is free...



They rope you in with...free computer lets say, then they want you to sign up for offers, that you have to pay for...UGH



Now you can go to websites for products you like and they will send you samples, some full size...

If a business makes a copy of your Drivers License does that violate the Patriot Act?

Also is it legal for a business to make a copy of your debit/credit card? Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

I would never allow a business to make a copy of my debit or credit card. They have absolutely no need for it. Just seems like an opportunity for ID theft.

If you mean a photocopy, then no.



Any other type of copy would be considered a forgery.|||If that business is the place you just got hired to be an employee at, then NO.|||i know it is not illegal to make a copy of your drivers license.



unless you tell them they cant. if its for credit. basically if you dont let them do it, then you dont get credit.



i dont think its legal to to make a copy of of a credit card. but you should not let them do that.|||i dont know why they would need a copy of your debit card, that sounds fishy!|||Many businesses will make a copy of employees%26#039; drivers%26#039; licenses as part of a background check. This is legal and does not violate the patriot act (which does more to take AWAY privacy and personal freedom than to protect it).



Many companies still use an older method of running a credit card, where they put it in a device that makes a copy of it on carbon paper. This is the only reason I can think of for a company to make a copy of a credit card, and it is also legal.



If you feel uncomfortable about a company doing either one of these things, you should definitely speak up and ask someone why it is being done.|||It%26#039;s perfectly legal. Sorry.|||I don%26#039;t know why they need a copy of your credit card. But my business demands a copy of drivers licenses for a number of reasons.



For one...here in Michigan they have some pretty good laws to at help fight folks who bounce checks. But a part of the law says in order to take advantage of it, you must have accepted their drivers license as proof of ID when they wrote you a check.



Well, obviously, if you go to court and the judge asks the check writer if they showed their ID, they will always say %26quot;No%26quot;. So we make a copy for proof.



Also comes to good use when you have to sue them.....the picture makes it very easy for the process server.|||In my business, auto finance we have no choice because our lenders require a copy of the customers drivers license and besides that we need a copy so we can prove the we are in compliance with the Patriot Act by documenting that the customers are who they say they are.



Plus if we have to repossess the vehicle, its%26#039; a lot easier for the repo man to identify the customers with a copy of their drivers license.



As far as a debit card, I can not think of a valid reason for that.

Is it worth clicking on a banner for a free ipod video?

I always see these as banners and occasional pop-ups that say you can get a free ipod video by taking part of certain things like trial offers and apply for new credit cards.

No you usually end up paying the same amount of $$$ and being in a contract for different companies.

You can always apply for the card..actavate it.. then cut it up and throw it away. ^_^|||you have to have a credit card AND PUT IN YOUR ADRESS AND YOU EMAIL ADRESS sorry about hte CAPS lock|||They usually want you to give them enough personal information to steal your identity, and you usually have to do something that makes it not worthwhile|||u will be spamed and then find out u only will be registered to get one, i suggest that u dont but hey ,, its up to u|||only if you want spyware,adware,God knows what else ware loaded into your stuff. I don%26#039;t|||Don%26#039;t apply for a credit card! People don%26#039;t realize that every time someone does a credit check on you it lowers your credit score. If you want a card then fine, but don%26#039;t apply for them all the time. Oh, and to answer the question...SPAM!



There is always a catch.|||Nothing is free. There is always a price to pay.

How did Lowe's get my name and address after one visit to their store?

I made a $2.94 purchase and I paid cash! But two days later, I received a letter from Lowe%26#039;s, thanking me for my visit and offering me a Lowe%26#039;s Credit Card. This is Orwellian and it%26#039;s creeping me out!



How did Lowe%26#039;s get my name and address after one visit to their store?loan forgiveness





Did they ask you for your phone # in the checkout line? (I know there%26#039;s somewhere I shopped where they did, maybe it was Lowe%26#039;s).



I usually make up fake numbers as it irks me that they are trying to force me to be part of their market study. If you want to survey me, ask me, and I can accept or decline; don%26#039;t try to force me as part of my purchase. that%26#039;s not part of the deal.



I think that buying something from there store is enough, they don%26#039;t have the right to know my demographics, etc...



I hope you figure it out, I am curious how they got your info, too :-)

just coincidence..lol|||If you recently moved and put in a change of address card many marketing companies access those records. If you used a coupon the code the coupon sent to your house so they know someone from that residence reedeemed it. Also many marketing companies access records regarding home sales.|||That is ODD.



They do have cameras in the store but they are supposed to use them only for security purposes. They can not take your personal information.



What I would do it march right down to LOWES and ask the manager. They have to tell you how they got your contact information. You might just learn something. I would diffinately do this right now.



I have shopped at Lowes many time and never got one of those letters until I decided to get their credit card. Now I do get them but it is understandable.



Do not let this remain a mystery. Ask them.

T-Mobile change of responsibility?

It%26#039;s where the main account holder releases the phone line I use to me, therefore just that one line will be under my name and I will pay for it. My question is, do they require a credit check OR credit card for this? What about age limit? I am a minor with a checking and savings account solely under my name, and a stable job, but still only sixteen...I can%26#039;t get a credit card because my bank doesn%26#039;t offer them.



T-Mobile change of responsibility?sba loans





They do require a credit check and you have to be 18 years old. You have to be 18 to sign a contract, which is what you will be doing if you do a change of responsibility.

What is the law on this issue?

Went out to dinner. Posted on entry door is that they accept credit cards, but NOT personal checks. Not a problem. We eat dinner. Go to pay for our dinner and get informed that we have to leave. drive to a bank, get cash, and come back and pay them as THEIR machine is down. I refused. I tried to get them to call their company and run my credit card by phone, they refused. I offered them a personal check, they refused. I asked to speak with a manager, they did NOT have one available according to the cashier. They ended up telling me to leave and come back today. Now as it was THEIR machine that was messed up and they REFUSED to either run my credit card manually or by phone, and they also refused a personal check, am I LEGALLY required to drive back out there and pay them at their convience?



Now I AM GOING TO GO PAY THEM, I just want to know if LEGAL for a place of business to do this? This is for a debate between my daughter and myself.

They should have called it in manually.



Legally, tough to prove any damages to sue for.

I don%26#039;t know sexy, if I were in your shoe%26#039;s I wouldn%26#039;t read to much into it, because the bottom line is that they fed you........I%26#039;m sure you enjoyed the dinner now why make a stink about their incompetency. In other words you went there to eat not to stress yourself out....Sometimes we have to bite our tongue and just go with the flow...... If I felt so harsh about their services I would pay them without a tip and not return there again.....



Good luck!|||most managers would give you a complimentary meal for your inconvience, i also would not leave and bring back cash. mail them a check and see how fast they cash it? sorry i dont have an opinion as to the legality of this. i attempted to check in at a hotel with CASH they wouldnt accept anything but my credit card?|||It sounds to me as if you are probably legally obligated to pay them, but not in any particular manner. So to answer you specifically, you are probably not obligated to drive out there to pay them. But you probably do owe them an enforceable debt for the value of the meal.



The reason for the equivocation is that you say %26quot;they ended up telling [you] to leave and come back today.%26quot; That implies that you agreed, either expressly or by failing to object to this solution. If you did, you are obliged to keep your promise.



OTOH, if you didn%26#039;t agree to return (either expressly or implicitly), then you are not obliged to return to pay -- you are free to meet your obligation to them by mailing them a check.



If you%26#039;re asking whether you%26#039;re obliged to pay them at all, the answer is probably yes. While you may not be obliged under contract law to do so (because you %26quot;tendered%26quot; payment, in the form of your credit card, which they declined to accept), the law of restitution would probably prevent you from obtaining a %26quot;windfall%26quot; benefit of the value of the meal.



And don%26#039;t be too hard on the person who used the word %26quot;sue.%26quot; Even though you%26#039;re not thinking of bringing a case, or defending a case, the only meaningful way of answering your question (where you capitalized the word LEGALLY) is to hypothosize a lawsuit. So, only in the hypothetical, if they sued you in contract law for the value of the meal, you would probably have a valid defense -- that you tendered payment, which was rejected. But if they also sued you on a theory of restitution (i.e., that you had obtained a benefit for which you did not pay), that defense would not apply.|||OK%26lt; I answered last night, and not only did everyone tell you to grow up and pay the buill, many stated outright and the rest implied that it is legal.



So yes, it is legal.



What planet do yo live on? You ate the food, consumed the services, and their was a glitch. You think this might not entitle them to work out a payment method with you? What do you think the rest of the folks did there while the credit card machine was down?
