Credit Card Lounge

I have tried 4 times for a credit card and was always rejected.

I am a student and would like to start building my credit. The only problem is, I keep getting denied, even for student cards. Are there any cards out there that I can get?

How do I search the internet to find out if I have been approved for a credit card application?

I’m tired of getting credit card offers because of how much paper they use up, so I went ahead and took my name of their lists through the optoutprescreen.com website.

However, I still have piles of credit card offers to get rid off.
Should I just send them back in the pre-paid envelopes?
Do I need to scratch off my personal information before I do this?

I went to the mall recently and got a simon mall visa debit card and it says on it accepted anywhere that visa credit card is, so does that mean i can buy things online using this debit card even in smaller online stores that accept visa, not big stuff like amazon?

Doing some research on the credit card industry. Trying to see how economic factors and not just card/transfer rates impact how many people apply for cards, based on inflation, defaulting on loans and mortgages, etc. Overall economic impact.

I just signed up for an Amazon Visa credit card, It says that for every dollar I spend I will gain a point….Once I get to 2500 points that I will get a $25 gift card. I have a vacation coming up in March and we are going to pay cash. Can I simply put the vacation on this card and immediately send payment and get the reward? Or do you think it has to stay on the card for a certain amount of time.

What do you do with all the Credit Card applications you get in the mail?

poll – fill it out or throw it away

I write “Throw this away for me” on it & send it back. they have to pay for the postage that way

I know there is one, because I did it for myself. Now my mom wants to do it, and I can’t remember the site!

i just have a secure CC right now. can I get a good rewards credit card before I start my job so that I can use it then and build a good credit history?would u recommend a citibank platinum card?
