I just turned 18 and I want to establish my credit. I already own a car so I don’t want to get an auto loan to start establishing it. I want to get a credit card with a low credit limit so I can start establishing it. Where are the easiest places to get credit cards?
My bank does not have credit cards. I also do not feel like changing banks because I have been with this one for 2 years.

I recently bought a magnetic card case to carry my credit cards and it seems that the magnet is destroying my credit cards. I had a case exactly like this (same brand, same type) before and the magnets never did this before. Is there anything I can do?

I already wrote the company that makes the card case and they were no help at all.

JD asked:


I currently have two credit cards, but would like to get one final one. I’ve been getting turned down for a few recently that I thought sounded good. What are some good cards and websites where I can get a credit card that almost every gets approved for? I’m young(21) and trying to establish some more credit. My friend got approved for a Best Buy credit card tonight and his credit isn’t that good. However, I just want a main card(for example: visa, discover) and not a store card. Thanks for any help.

The amount owed is not more than 1,500 between the four. I always pay double of what the minimum payment is.

kit asked:


I have a lot of credit cards to pay and always make the minimum sometimes a little bit more then the minimum per month. But I don’t know the difference between good credit and bad credit. Does bad credit involve not paying your credit? what is the difference between these two terms?

shooter 1 asked:


I have zero debt. I also have several credit cards. I am wondering how it will affect my credit to request the highest limit for each card, or if I should cancel all but 2 and have those with high spending limits. Along the same lines, how does “available” credit affect one’s credit score negatively or positively? If I get a $50,000 limit on a card (with 0 balance) but say, go to buy a car, will I be denied because I have too much credit out there?

Right now I have 10 Credit accounts open. Ranges from $424.00 to $5200.00 with a credit score of 728.

I just applied to get a motorcycle and they denied me saying that I have too much revolved credit open.

I rent a apt due to the high housing prices. I have yet been able to afford a house due to those circumstances.

I have a couple questions that I hope can be answered.

1. How many Cards should I have open at one time?

2. I have heard having allot of closed accounts on your credit report looks bad. T or F (Explanation Please)

3. I have heard that you should always keep a small balance on all your cards. T or F (Explanation Please)

4. Should I try and get an outside loan from a banker or lender to get a lower APR than what they are offering at the dealership?

5. Any other useful tips to help keep my credit score on the rise without accruing allot of debt?

Thanks Allot.
