IELTS Task II : Pros and cons of Credit card

dear essayers
Please kindly comment about my coherence and cohesion. I also opened for grammatical correction.

Nowadays it is easy to apply for and be given a credit card. However, some people-experience problems when they are not be able to pay their debts back. In your opinion, do the advantages of credit cards outweigh the advantages?

----------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------

Throughout the world credit card using is such a dweller lifestyle. Obviously, it is helpful enough for people to pay all of their basics. However, the economists reckon that credit card merely influence people to be consumptive for something not otherwise exist and tending people not able to pay back their debt. In my opinion the cons of credit card far outweigh the pros.

Credit card facilitates people to access money easily. This is related to unlimited transaction that banking provides for their customer. The feature is very helpful in order to emergency using such as in charge of baby birth or tuition fee paying. Credit card is also benefited for expensive paying in the short term embody in a peak season holiday paying. In this term people races booked the services they need while increasing prices commonly occur. Moreover, Credit card is such a save way to pay. It is simplifying our life that no needs to bring lots of cash everywhere. Hence, for busy people they can complete several transactions with one card in their hand.

On the contrary, credit card encourages people to spend money they do not have. Holding credit card raises consumerism to buy several things in order to fulfill their pleasure. People often forget about their ability to pay because unconsciously they shops with unlimited service which credit card gives. Those problems raise debt and also financial difficulty in the back. As an effect for applicant they cannot pay the debt and also lost their assets embody home, vehicles, jewelry while bank also influenced by this disturbance. As the enormous effect all of economical process suffering.

In sum, I believe that two poles always followed in a phenomenon. Related to credit card using people should be brake and distinct themselves for kind of payment they do properly.

First, I've got a small admin request for you - Your IELTS essays should be opened in Writing Feedback forum. (This was transferred from Essay Term papers)


This sentence is not written well...it has issues with grammar and clarity :( Try to present your hook is a more simple and interesting way;

Obviously, it is a very helpful and efficient solution for making payments that helps us avoid the inconvenience of carrying bulk cash.


Why you drag economists into this scenario? Your prompt is a very simple one which talks about what average people sometimes experience with credit cards. Do not introduce your topic to give a different interpretation of your topic. Try to introduce it in its original sense.

I do not want to make any objection. I just want to share my writing process. In the beginning I want to make link for debatable thesis statement, because the topic is in economy field so I try to altered "some people", "some sayings", "some thoughts" or "critics" with economist. Overall, the most important that how far reader understand about my writing

Yap as your previous advice, I should simplify my idea to avoid the deviation from the prompt.

In addition to that, try to use noun phrase to make your sentence more interesting which is what examiners are looking for
