CHAPTER 1
Smart Is a Relative Term
6:00 a.m., on the phone while at a payments convention. Boston, Massachusetts.
Polly:Life in the payments world will never be the same again!
Mava:What do you mean? You sound pretty worked up, considering that it's 6:00 a.m.
Polly:I haven't been able to sleep. I was sitting in the middle of the convention yesterday listening to the card associations, payment processors, merchants, and software vendors all arguing over the recent government regulations to keep costs down, and everyone is only concerned about their own interests.
Mava:So what's new about that? Everyone always has their own interests at heart, and it's never been about the consumer.
Polly:This is a day for the record books, girlfriend. Since the first credit card was issued back in 1962, the government has not intervened and actively taken control to stop escalating credit card costs, until now.
The banks are panicked over the money they'll lose, the processors are scrambling for new revenue streams, and the merchants are confused by all this contradictory information.
Mava:So what's the bottom line, Polly?
Polly:More than ever, the consumer needs to understand how to be credit smart — NOW!
What you might think was credit smart yesterday is not credit smart today.
And you are not alone.
Remember when you were so proud of making a large purchase on a zero percent interest rate card and only paying
$33 a month? Not smart!
Here's the reality: the economy has shifted, card offers are changing, and it costs you more to buy on credit than ever before.
Your interests and the bank's interests about how you use credit cards are at odds.
It's in your best interest to pay off your credit cards in full each month. However, it's in the bank's interest (and it's how they make their money) when you do not pay off your credit card in full each month. In fact, we've overheard some bankers

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
