msbelle, my company three companies ago had those kind of company credit cards. What really sucked, was of course the company took much much longer than the billing cycle to pay it out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
having a business credit card that the holder (employee) has to pay
What makes it a business credit card then?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I wonder who is funding that study...

does this make sense to anyone....having a business credit card that the holder (employee) has to pay - to get reimbursed for any chrages, the emp-loyee has to submit an expense report and receipts.
That's how ours were at my old firm. Annoying.

yup. Dh's works that way. and the companywas often slow to pay - which worked until people started paying the bills late and couldn't travel.
and it is a corporate card because the ultimate responsibility for the card is the company.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Makes no sense to me. My corporate card bill goes right to accounting, accounting hands me a copy so I can attach the receipts for the billing period, and it gets paid.
If I forget to put a business expense on my card and take it out-of-pocket, I just fill out an expense report and I get it in the following paycheck.

For whatever that's worth. If you pay late, it goes on your credit. If you don't pay, the collectors come after you.
I guess they take care of the annual fee?
I get emails from our accounting system when new charges hit my Amex to ping me to go in and allocate them. If approvals are needed those get sent and the system pays the card. Easy peasy, but also - the company is so much more in control this way, so I can't see how it's not a win on both sides.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
huh, ok. I guess much more common than I realized. I've always worked where a business card could ONLY be used for business expenses and the company paid the bill, but you had to supply receipts.

The company I was talking about didn't do that - the card had your name on it, but the card was in the name of the actual company. It was the employees paying the cards off late that finally got them to speed up their pay cycles on expense reports.
