Has anyone else had problems with HSBS retail services? I purchase a motorcycle on late 2007, its been like a year and a half and i noticed i havent really paid anything off. Im was paying only the minimum so i can build up my credit since this is my first big purchase. I havent missed any payments and found out my interest rate was 17%. Last time i paid $100 and they took $48 on interest and other charges. I googled them and found out a lot of ppl have had the same problems. I dont know what to do. Should i take a personal loan with a low fixed rate and so i can pay off my motorcycle and then just pay off my loan. Because pretty much half of the money i give HSBC they take it on interest. Any suggestions on what I should do?

How can the position that I was assured of be given to someone else in Retail & Services? I had applied for a position a month-and-a-half ago, had discussed a plan with my managers, and was assured of this position, after one month of training. However, my official job title is not what i applied for; It is supposed to be a temporary position. Recently, I was informed that the position that i want, applied for, and discussed with my managers was internally available through the company (unknownst to me; I believe my managers should have informed me), and the position had been filled, by someone else. Now, I feel I have lost the opportunity for this position for at least a year, and i'm not willing to stay with the company that long, because the position I want pays twice as much as I am currently making. So, I am trying my options to aquire this position. I would really appreciate any response, for or against, and any suggestions.

Why do some seemingly educated people treat retail customer service providers like they are beneath them? The most affluent appearing people are the worst offenders. They tend to "talk down" to clerks, cashiers, etc..., they are rude and demanding and say inappropriate things like "you have nothing better to do". They don't even have the common sense to put down their cell phone long enough to speak with the person in front of them, then proceed to curse out the service member for ignoring them. Why is this? Do they not realize that without retail employees that they would be hungry and naked?
