点评:BUYER BEWARE
I had a very concerning experience with this store and manager when visiting Bermuda. I was looking at some jewelry, and before even confirming I was open to purchasing, the manager offered to “put it on his credit card” so I didn’t have to use mine. I’ve never heard of anyone doing this before, and I immediately declined. It felt icky, and I also never indicated that I needed help with my finances, which I don’t.
At one point, I considered purchasing a ring, which I opted to put on my own credit card, but I had my low balance card with me, and the purchase would have put me over my limit. Thank goodness this happened because when I had to call my credit card company to make sure there weren’t any other fraudulent transactions on it, the manager told me I could use his phone. I looked at him and coldly said, “no.”
As we all know, our phone numbers are connected to our cards, so I got the feeling he was trying to get more personal financial information from me, and after I confirmed that my account was safe, we left immediately.
The manager does not have a credit card that he is able to offer you; he has a credit line through the company that he disguises as a personal credit card, which is all illegal. This is a very sus company. Do your research before walking in there.

我在百慕大旅游时,与这家店和经理有过一次非常令人担忧的经历。当时我正在看一些珠宝,甚至还没确认是否愿意购买,经理就提出“把钱记在他的信用卡上”,这样我就不用刷自己的卡了。我以前从未听说过有人这么做,所以我立即拒绝了。这感觉很不舒服,而且我从未表示过我需要财务方面的帮助,而我实际上并不需要。
有一次,我考虑买一枚戒指,我选择用自己的信用卡支付,但我的信用卡余额不多,买戒指会超出我的信用额度。谢天谢地,这件事发生了,因为当我不得不打电话给我的信用卡公司确认卡上没有其他欺诈交易时,经理告诉我可以用他的电话。我看着他,冷冷地说:“不行。”
众所周知,我们的电话号码和信用卡是绑定的,所以我感觉他想从我这里获取更多个人财务信息。在我确认账户安全后,我们就立刻离开了。
经理没有信用卡可以给你;他通过公司获得了信用额度,却伪装成个人信用卡,这完全是违法的。这家公司非常可疑。进去之前一定要做好调查。
