do you have a credi card that will allow me a second chance |
|
Answer:
As far as we can understand from your question you have had some problems with your credit history and now you need a second chance credit card. We recommend you to consider applying for credit cards issued by First PREMIER. These cards are designed especially for those who have bad payment history. Centennial MasterCard®/Visa or Gold MasterCard®/Visa. These are credit cards with instant decision. You will know whether you are approved or not in less than a minute. These cards have very low APR. All your payment information will be reported to credit bureaus. If you are not sure that you will be approved for these cards you can start building your credit history with a secured credit card. Our experts recommend Secured Visa® Credit Card issued by Applied Bank. You will have to make a bank deposit to secure your credit account. Your credit limit will be equal to the amount of your deposit. |

can i transfer a balance if i am over my credit limit?SS |
|
Answer:
Technically you can transfer your balance to a new credit card even if you have gone over your credit limit on your old one. However, you need to keep in mind that exceeding your credit line might have a negative effect on your credit history. Before you apply for a new card to transfer your current debt you need to check your credit score. If your credit is still good you can apply for one of the offers with 0% APR on balance transfer. More Card issued by Discover. This is a great card for balance transfer because it has 0% APR on balance transfer and purchases. You can take advantage of its wonderful cash back program.

This is a very convenient feature if you are not sure that you will be able to pay off your balance during the introductory period. It also has 0% intro APR on purchases for up to 12 months. All the cards mentioned above are for consumers with good credit only. If your credit is average we recommend you Platinum - Visa by Capital One.

what credit bearue they look at when you apply for a credit card like american express |

It is difficult to say what banks request credit reports from a particular bureau. Most banks work with all four major bureaus but usually pull out one or two credit reports. To avoid problems you need to request credit reports from all credit bureaus yourself you make sure there are no discrepancies. If there are you should negotiate the issue with the bureau and make sure that all the information is correct.Cards offered by American Express are for good and excellent credit only.

I need a credit card for Real Estate Investment purposes, with a low credit score is it possible to get a credit card with a limit of $5,000 or more? If so, how? |
|
Answer:
Unfortunately, it's hard to give you a comprehensive answer because we do not know your exact credit score. If it is lower than 350 FICO points the only credit cards you qualify for are offers for bad credit from First PREMIER. These cards have low credit limit (a few hundred dollars). But if you have poor credit we recommend you to apply for one of these cards to start improving your credit. Consider these credit offers: Centennial MasterCard®/Visa. This is one of the most popular cards among clients with poor credit. This offer comes with APR on purchases. No checking account or bank deposit is needed. All your payment activity will be reported to all four credit bureaus. Centennial Gold MasterCard®/Visa. If you make your first two payments on time you will get %50 credit limit increase. Almost all applications are accepted. If your credit score is between 350 - 619 FICO points you qualify for fair credit deals. Usually, credit limit for these cards is around $2,500-3,000. We recommend cards issued by Capital One such as Standard Platinum. This card has 0% APR for purchases until December, 2008. This card is also good for someone who has no credit. |

I don't have credit coz i just moved to the USA and I want to start building my credit. Do you have a card with low interest rate for me? |

Since you are just starting to build your credit the best cards for you are those issued by Capital One for consumers with no credit. For example, Classic Platinum credit card has relatively low APR and 0% APR on purchases till December, 2008. However, it has a small annual fee. Standard Platinum has no maintenance fee but its APR is slightly higher. You also get 0% introductory APR till December, 2008.

For instance, Secured Visa® Credit Card issued by Applied Bank guarantees that your low 9.9% APR won't change even if you are late with payment. To get approved for a secured credit card you need to make a bank deposit to secure your credit account. All your payment information will be reported to credit bureaus. |

What interest rate can I get with 587 as credit score?
Thanks |
|
Answer:
587 FICO points on your credit report means that you qualify only for cards for consumers with bad credit. However, you are getting closer to the number that is considered fair (average) - 620. So it is about time to apply for a credit card and improve your credit rating. The best option for you would be cards issued by First PREMIER. These offers are designed for people whose credit needs some improvement. The lowest APR you can get right now is 9.9% if you apply for Gold MasterCard®/Visa or Centennial MasterCard®/Visa. These cards have instant approval so you won't have to wait to know whether you are approved or not. Your payment information will be sent to all credit bureaus. These are great cards to improve your credit. You can also apply for Secured Visa® Credit Card issued by Applied Bank. This is a secured card. That means you will need to make a bank deposit. This card has fixed low 9.9% APR. It won't change even if you are late with your payment. |

I have $4000 in other cards and want to have just one card, but my credit isn't great. Suggestions? |
|
Answer:
Most credit cards with 0% APR on balance transfer are for consumers with good credit only. However, there are some cards for fair credit that have very good interest rate for balance transfer. Your best choice would be Platinum Card or Platinum Visa issued by Capital One. These cards are designed especially for those who want to pay off their balance on other cards. They have very low APR on balance transfer - 8.65%. Also these cards have 0% APR on purchases until December, 2008. Classic Platinum from Capital One also has reasonable APR on balance transfer - 14.65%. The card has no balance transfer fees. 0% intro APR on purchases till will help you save if you plan to use this card for purchases. Most likely, you won't be able to transfer $4000 at once. Usually, credit limit on these cards is up to $2,500 and $3,000. It is still wise to transfer some of your balance to a card with better rates. |
