When you have a Store card are you aware who is the credit underwriter?

Question

I think that many times I have been offered a store card, just to find out later that some really bad company has the business from you.

Do you know then what happens when you are taken ill, some of the insurance is not always valid! with some of these companies

Answer 1

Which bad companies are these then? Name a few names

Answer 2

I usually pay attention to it...but then again, I end up doing business with a lot of companies that I don't necessarily agree with when it comes to their ethics and business practices. Nike would be a great example...sure, I would prefer that their items were made in america...but guess what...they aren't and I love Nike. Gillette would be another one. I do my very best to avoid their products...but from time to time I get stuck finding out that one of my favorite products is from them. It happens.  

On a second note...many of these "bad companies" that you refer to are actually looking "bad" because of the insurance company that backs them...not the company itself.
