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 have three credit cards but only use one, and pay it off in full every month. I am planning on making a big purchase at Best Buy and can save a lot of money if I open a credit card with the purchase. (I believe like 20% which would be almost $150). I would never use that card again.

Is it bad for my credit rating to have credit cards that I never use?

I was approved for a credit card with a limit of $1000. I have normal credit. I’m interested in starting a business, but I’ll need more money available to borrow. What would my limit be on one of those “pre-approved” credit cards with excessive interest rates that are available to everyone?

I have terrible credit!! The only card that I am able to sign up for is a pre-pay card where I basically borrow my own money. I need to establish good credit somehow any suggestions?

I am trying to rebuild my credit after ID theft, a couple of problems that were mine and years of basically not having any credit reported. (I primarily use my debit card and pay cash for everything). I make good money now and am trying to rebuild in order to purchase a condo in the next couple of years. My good accounts (rental, club, cable, cell, etc.) have not reported my good credit. So how many cards should I take out that will help boost my credit score but not hinder my credit. Thank you!

Philosopher asked:


Let’s say I buy something for $100. I return it and they say I will have that credit back on my credit card. So now my credit card balance is $100? What if I paid for that $100 already and then returned it and got credit back? Can a credit card have a balance and have money withdrawn from it?
