I started a small business 6 months ago that has been very successful. I have a business bank account, but have not done anything else to establish credit for the business.

I would like to lease a vehicle in the name of my small business and am curious if my business credit score would be too low?

Does anyone know a general guideline on how quickly a line of credit is established for a small business?

I have a cosigner that has excellent credit that will cosign for me to get a credit card to build my score plus to have for emergencies. My score is a 585. I pay my bills on time and don’t spend alot of money on dumb things. I just don’t have anything but a car loan giving me credit and a couple of old accounts that need taken care of.

I recently paid my credit card bill of $2.27, however the credit card company entered the payment as $227.00, causing $50 in overdraft fees at my bank. The credit card company had me fax over a statement with the bank fees on it so they can take care of it, however after 3 weeks they still haven’t done it, they tell me that they don’t even know if the statement is in the building and that they get hundreds of faxes a day and as soon as they get to it, they will handle it, what if this takes months? Is there a way I can make them take care of this matter more quickly? I just went ahead and paid my banks fees just so I could use my bank account again. Did I do the right thing? What if the credit card company never received the fax and they end up asking for another one, how can I make sure that they receive it? They corrected the mistake between the $2.27 and $227.00, maybe that’s all I can hope for.

Got 2 old credit cards with small amounts-like one hundred dollars balance one each, but want to pay off quickly. Can’t pay each credit card month to month either or separately. Don’t need old credit cards no more. What do I do? Can anyone help me out? Only helpful and sensible answer are needed for my dilemma.
