Same. I complained about the rates I was given by my auto insurance company and they said it was because I had no credit. I told them I could easily pay 12 months up front, didn't matter. I told them I could prove my income was more than enough, didn't matter. They told me I should get a credit card.
In order to get a service I'm required to have by the government, I had to have my name in a system run by private, for profit companies.
