i need a card to start building my credit...im 19 years old, my parents wont cosign, i want no annual fee and a 200 spending limit on it. which one do i chose??? thanks
Answer
There are credit cards for those who have no credit history. Credit card issuers usually think about such people and have special deals for them. They will probably give you a card with not really good terms and a rather small credit limit and watch how will you pay your bills. If everything is fine, they will probably raise your credit line. We advise you limited or no credit cards to start building your credit history. They have reasonable fees and competetive APRs. To get a suitable credit card, please explore our limited or no credit cards sections.

do you know what your score or score range has to be to apply for american express?
Answer
American Express is one of the finest financial services oriented companies. They issue credit cards only for good and excellent credit history. Your credit history is reflected in your credit score. A credit score is a numerical reflection of the information that is contained in a consumer's credit report. The most commonly used credit score is FICO score. It is the answer from a mathematical formula that applies numerical characteristics to different pieces of information in your credit report. To qualify for an American Express card you must have not less than 660 points.

My question is regarding the Balance Transfer fees on most credit cards. It states that there is a 3% fee with $10 min. and $75 max. What exactly does this mean? How much is the fee if I want to transfer a balance of $6000 to a new card?
Answer
Thank you for addressing your requests to our service. Actually, this means that even if the amount of money you want to transfer is quite large, you will have to pay $75 anyway. For instance, if you want to transfer $6000, the actual percentage is $180, but you will pay the defined maximum which is $75. You are welcome to explore our 0 balance transfer credit cards.

whats does cash advace mean and do all credit cards allow you do atm transaction in case of emergency
Answer

Cash advance means obtaining the cash by using the credit card in ATMs or writing special cash advance checks. Generally, all credit cards have this option. However, we don't recommend making withdrawals if there is no emergency. Otherwise, you are simply wasting your money for fees and interest charges. The expenses associated with cash advance are very high.

If you are looking for the most beneficial terms on cash advances, consider offers from Bank of America. Consider NFL Extra PointsTM Credit Card, Bank of America® Accelerated RewardsTM American Express® Card or Ducks Unlimited World Points® Platinum Plus® Visa® Card. They provide an introductory 0% interest rate for cash advance checks for your first 12 billing cycles (subject to a 3% transaction fee, no less than $10).

i work at mc donalds and it seems noone want me to have a credit card
Answer

Credit cards have so many advantages that you definitely need to use them! They help people make purchases online and offline, move about without carrying a bulk of cash in their wallets or charge money in case of emergency. You can pay your membership fees and taxes online without having to leave the comfort of your home. Even to rent a car, you need to have a credit card!

In addition, a smart credit card management will help you improve your credit score. This number is used to make important decisions concerning your ability to rent an apartment, get a job, obtain insurance and qualify for credit cards and loans. Credit scores are calculated by credit bureaus. The largest ones in the U.S. are Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

All US residents may get one free credit report within a 12-month period from each of the three credit bureaus. So if you want to apply for a suitable plastic, find out your credit score. If it ranges from 0 to 350, it means you have no credit. Consider Capital One® offers to start building your score. Pay attention to Platinum card. It provides a low APR on balance transfers and a 0% introductory APR on purchases. However, you need to have a stable income and at least some points to qualify.

If your FICO score is under 629, then you are eligible for credit cards for bad score. Such offers as Gold MasterCard®/Visa First PREMIER® Bank will help you improve your credit score at affordable terms. The bank monthly reports your payments to the major credit bureaus. It will help you prove that you are a reliable borrower.

If your score ranges from 620 to 659 points, than you can take advantage of fair credit cards. One of the best offers in this group is Classic Platinum from Capital One®. It has a low ongoing APR on purchases and a low annual fee.
