Credit Card Lounge

I applied online yesteray for my first credit card and they said I would get a response within 30 days. Why does it take so long? Is it because I have no credit and it was a student credit card? Also, I said I had both savings and a checking account but right now I only have a savings but will be getting a checking account on Saturday. Is it ok that I said I had both a checkings and a saving? Will it make them reject my application? Are they eager to give a credit card to someone like me, a young person likely to give them money for interest? I am just anxious about the whole thing. I am going to be responsible with it because I am careful with all my money.
also I didn’t know what they meant by residence when they asked rent or own? do they seriously expect me to pay for rent at this age? So I selected “Other” and put zero paid month;y for my residence because that is what I pay, I mean I help my mom out sometimes but thats it.
lol iceman, I said I made 6K a year because that is what I made in 2005
well it was labled a student credit card….being wary should be expected of them if they think this.
yeah it was CHASE
what is the purpose of advertising student credit cards then?? they are designed for people like me who have no creidt. thanks for not answering my question.

how many credit card offers do you get in the mail weekly? what do you do with them? I like to tear em up and send em back in the prepaid onvelope. Then i write “No Thanks, Im on the dave ramsey plan.” Just a fun little hobby of mine.
you dont need a credit card to rent a car or get a hotel room or book a flight. A debit card works just fine and you dont go into debt using it.

Nothing wrong with good credit except that you have to go into debt and stay in debt to have good credit. A game that makes banks weathy not me and you.
