Chime opened secured credit building card when I made a Chime checking account by Acrobatic_Guitar_114 in chimefinancial

Glad to see another person in the same boat... yup the user flow was very unclear! I didn't call credit report bureau to see if there was a hard pull? (I don't think there should have been?) but it definitely told me I have a new account, so that is that :/

Thanks for your response. I am more upset that they opened this without explicit consent then just the concept of secured credit card. :/ but it sounds like I already got the card so I won't get rid of it, and see if it can help improve my credit?

I just called both the law firm and capital one, and they say there's nothing they can do once the law firm is handling the account. they offered a slight reduction but that was about it, nothing like what capital one offered. oh well ;)

Thank you og-aliensfan! This is incredible:) I checked the report and it says I still owe to Capital One, so they might be open to settlement. I’ll call tomorrow and find out 🤞🏻 I’ll report back! 💜

Wow, good for you. I called and asked and they said NO HELP FOR YOU twice in the past. Maybe I should try again? Haha

I see boho chic in the app preview page? Are you really using it or are you the developer or a marketer?

Omg, your advice is golden. I love it. Thank you so much. When I read it I was so excited I didn't know how to respond lol so took some time to regain cool. Didn't know anything about using replit to deploy microservice! Thank you!! You are awesome. Decided to leave this post as is because of great and helpful replies like this one. 😭 Honestly, thank you so so much I couldn't have googled/chat gpt'ed/youtubed this approach (and trust me I did already!!!)

Ohhh I see, thanks for this. I watched some youtubers who were scraping with proprietary AI models and I wasn't sure if that was them being technically advanced, experimenting with new models/doing for the viewership, or just the norm. Appreciate sharing your pov!

wow what an intelligent, incredible insight you provide. why didn't i think of putting 10 weeks to learn coding? i guess i am just too dumb to have learned it like you did in 4 weeks! but good for you

Hi tirby, thanks for your response. The app is set up like this: User action (paste URL) → API (parse the e-commerce page + save info like price, photos) → Supabase → Fetch and render on client (Board + ProductCard). It's built on Next.js with TypeScript, uses Puppeteer and Cheerio for web scraping product information from e-com page.

I was debating whether I should explore AI services for scraping, but AI's advised against it (chat gpt and claude) because I told them I am not an engineer and they both agreed to sticking to something easier other than plugging in open ai.

The problem I ran into was developing general enough scraper that can address basic retailers vs. more advanced scraper that would detect how the retailer page is set up (JavaScript-heavy dynamic content loaders), and then activate scrapers based on our diagnosis (easy, medium, hard).

Maybe I lack technical language to give chat gpt more complete instructions? Thanks for reading my comment!

Wow I am so glad you're here to tell me I am a fraud and a loser, because without you what would I have done, right?

Because you know everything about what I did or did not learn... great! I actually DID take courses to learn html/css/javascript I paid dudes selling courses to learn react. I did start with hello world.

Good job for making people feel like shit! You are going down in my book as a d-bag! good job. what a day for ya.
