NAHIN .........(ek Kahaani)


 Meri Biwi SHAALINI mujhe khinchte hue Drawing room mein le gayi, "Aaiiye main aapko apni saheli se milvaati hoon. Hum log qareeb baraah saal baad mil rahe hain". Mujhe nahi maalum tha ki Drawing room mein daakhil hote hi mujhe hairat ka ek Zabardast jhatka bardaasht karna padega. Mere saamne woh ladki baithi thi, jisse mujhe behad nafrat thi,magar jisey main kabhi bhula na saka.
              Ye Tajurba mere liye bada romantic bhi tha aur ajeeb bhi, ki koi haseen ladki, gali (street) ke us paar roushandaan se aksar mujhe dekhti thi, Ye silsila kaafi dino se chal raha tha. Office se aate-aate aur fursat ke lamhon mein, jab main khidki mein baitha padne mein busy hota tha, uski arthpoorn aankhein roushandaan se mujhe jhaank rahi hoti thi. Us waqt meri ajeeb si haalat hoti thi. Ek taraf ye khoobsurat ehsaas ki humein bhi kisi ne dekhne ke Qaabil samjha, aur dusri taraf ek anjaana-sa darr. Ye gali haalaanki veeran rehti thi, magar itni bhi nahi thi ki kisi waqt us par aamadharaft hi na rehti ho, Isliye darr lagta tha ki kahin ye choriyaan kisi roz koi pakad na le. Khamakhaah badnaami hogi.
             Main yahaan dehradun 6 mahine ki training poori karne aaya tha aur iske baad hi sub-engineer ki post par appointment honi

Common mistakes by credit card holders


Carrying cash may  be cumbersome sometimes and risky  too. 

Undoubtedly, the arrival of credit cards on the scene has made life simpler and convenient. 

For some people using credit card is a way of life, whereas for some handling cash is a better option. We notice that many people use their credit cards wisely whereas  there are few who are careless towards their credit cards. Remember if not used wisely, Credit Cards can make one’s life miserable. . 

In this article I have analyzed the common mistakes that cardholders make and how they can avoid these mistakes.

Ignoring the terms and conditions

No doubt the terms and conditions are quite difficult  to understand, but one needs to try. Ignoring them is not going to make them disappear. Many cardholders are surprised when they notice a change in interest rates or annual fees being charged on their free for life time cards. Read the terms and conditions carefully and try to understand them. If you have any difficulty, you can call up the customer care division for clarifications or simply search on Internet for the meaning of those terms.

Ignoring Monthly Statement

Reading your monthly statement is as important as reading the terms and conditions. Keep a track of your monthly spends on credit cards and cross check for any suspicious charges on your card. Call customer care immediately if you notice any spends that you did not make are being reflected in your billing statement as credit card frauds are rampant.

Paying only minimum dues

Minimum monthly dues are usually 5% of the total outstanding amount. At this rate it will take more than a year to pay off the entire dues. It is a happy situation for the credit card issuer, but not for the cardholder. The card issuer will get its share of high interest rate, which can range between  26% – 47% p.a. including service charges. Secondly, all the new purchases on the card get combined with the outstanding amount and the interest is charged on the combined balance. Paying only the minimum amount due will keep the cardholder in debt for a long time. Whenever possible pay more than what is minimum due to keep the debt down to manageable level.

Ignoring payment due date

Make sure you know the payment due dates on each credit card you hold. Delayed payment will add more burden on your finances with hefty interest charges and late payment fees (up to Rs. 787/-) and frequent delays in payment will also affect your credit score. If you have been paying your dues on time and have missed one payment, you can call up the card issuer and request them to waive the penalty charges though it is not a binding on them to do so. 

If you have not done it till now, then subscribe immediately to the card issuer service of sending an sms or email reminding about the payment due date. If you are frequent traveler or too occupied with your professional obligations, subscribe to auto debit facility. But make sure there is enough balance in your account to avoid any payment dishonour t, else you will be penalized from both ends i.e. your banker as well as card issuer (up to Rs. 562/- incl. service tax).

Overspending

Impulse shopping on credit card gives a kick, but on the wrong side and by the time we realize it, it is too late in most cases. This is how the debts on credit cards grow. 
Before you shop on credit card, just analyze your financial situation and ask yourself:

1.    Do you really want it?
2.    Can you really afford it?
3.    If buying on EMI, how much it will cost and how long you will be paying?

Try answering these questions before you make those purchases. This will help you take a little control on your finances.

Avoid withdrawing cash against credit card

Withdrawing cash against credit card is as simple as withdrawing cash on your debit card. But the trap lies in  the withdrawal fees, which is usually up to 33.7% p.a. incl. service tax plus interest rate ranging from 26% – 47% p.a. including service charges. Remember that the interest rate is applicable from day one as there is no free credit period for cash withdrawals. Do not ever fall in the trap of withdrawing money against your credit card unless and until it is an extreme emergency. Then too make sure that you pay back the same at the earliest.

Having multiple credit cards

Having and managing multiple cards can definitely increase your credit ratings. But remember that each application for credit cards gets registered as an enquiry in your credit report. Excessive numbers of such enquiries indicates that you are “Credit Hungry” and in an urgent need of money. This makes the providers more cautious while evaluating your application for any credit facility. Don’t pick too many credit cards. Just have 2-3 cards that offer required credit limit and low interest rate on revolving credit facility. Acquiring too  many credit cards is a temptation with many  obsessive spenders.

This way we see that credit card offers convenience but only to those who use it wisely and do not fall into the golden trap (or Platinum, Titanium trap) laid by the credit card companies.
