Can anybody explain how you credit works?

This is what I mean...when you apply for credit it's a mark against your credit. You haven't purchased anything, but it goes against your score.

Now, your score is what tells creditors your "credit worthiness".

How can you get credit, if, when you apply for credit, you get denied b/c you have too many inquiries? But you have the inquiries b/c you want to get some credit.

Does it make any sense to anybody>>>?

Some companies have databases where you can enter a person's name and it will tell you their phone number, where they worked, even their SSN. Or you can enter an SSN and it will tell you those things.

One of them is Accurint, which is a private company. I could understand how they got the address and phone number data, but how do they get people's places of employment, and social security numbers?

My husband recently became disabled and can not work due to a back injury (which did not happen at work). He is going to have surgery but it hasn't been scheduled yet (kaiser insurance and they take forever). My brother is my husbands employer. What happens with medical insurance in this case? My brother currently pays about 800.00 per month for medical for us and we are trying to save him some money. Can he legally fire my husband so that we can get cobra? Would cobra cost us more than the 800.00 per month? If someone has some answers to these questions that would be awesome. I have already been to the government site and looked over things but i'm not getting much info to specifics so please don't tell me to look at the EDD site. Thanks so much.

we have a car loan from wescom credit union, and for the past year they have been sending us notices that they do not have the proper proof of ins. coverage. then in the same notices, they are offering auto ins. Is this not strong-arming?
What should we do?
the ins. they offer is way more expensive. As we have been doing business with them for 7 years we think we should be treated better. never late on a payment.
Has anyone else experienced this predatory practice from wescom?

I received a handle from the Peerless Co. because my set screw is stripped in the old handle. They told me to drill it out with a drill. I have tried this off & on for over two hours and nothing is happening. How in the world do they expect me to get this set screw out?

A 19 year-old magazine student salesman came to my door last night. He said he was trying to raise "points" for a empire sales thing for his school. I gave him two checks for subscription to magazines. I already sent in a cancellation notice to cancel my subscriptions and then he won't be able to cash the checks.

But is there something I can do NOW? Like call my bank and put a hold on the checks or cancel them someway? I've never written checks so I have no clue what I'm talking about..thanks!
