Credit Card Lamp I have 3 credit cards which are pretty much at max limit. I need an additional 40,000 to finish my home improvement and would like to transfer over these 3 which total 40,000. My mid score is 704. Is there any copanies williing to offer over 100,000 credit card limits? Also, will this hurt my credit score? I need to know cause I will refinance my home once I have finished this last phase of my new home.
Answer:
There are several balance transfer cards for good credit that come with a high spending limit - up to $100.000. However, keep in mind that the spending limit is set by the lender. Its amount depends on several factors - your income, debt, payment pattern and others. We don't guarantee that you will receive the highest possible spending limit. Nowadays all banks are lowering spending limits in order to reduce their lending risks. It means that you may be able to move only a portion of your debt.

Consider Blue card from American Express. It has 0% APR on purchases, no annual fee and 2.99% fixed APR on balance transfers for the first 12 months. Plus, you can earn 1 point for every $1 you spend. The balance transfer fee is capped. Its maximum amount is $99.

Starwood Preferred Guest® Card from American Express offers 2.9% introductory interest rate. There is no annual fee for the first year. And moreover, you don't need to pay a balance transfer fee! You will earn 1 point per $1 spent on the card and 2 points per $1 spent for Starwood related purchases.

Gold Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express has 9.99% APR on balance transfers, but there is no balance transfer fee associated with this offer. You can also take advantage of travel rewards program and earn free airline tickets.

If you already have an American Express card, you won't be able to transfer your debt to a new American Express card. In this case we recommend you Discover offers. However, their credit limit is up to $50,000.

Balance transfers won't affect your credit score if you don't close your old cards. Credit bureaus consider your credit utilization ratio - the percentage between your balances and your total available credit. The lower this percentage, the better. If you have maxed out your spending limit, it means that your utilization ratio is about 100%. It's not good for your FICO score. When you get a new card, the amount of your available credit increases, so the ratio will become lower.

Credit Card Lamp I am seeking funds for college- the school is brand new and hasn't been accredited for student loans or government aid. I've been denied for several personal loans, I don't have a co-signer, and I've been denied for some credit cards.
I just need 7,000 for school and I work full time. Please advise
Answer:

Unfortunately, all credit cards for people with no credit and for young adults come with a small credit limit - about $3.000. If you want to get bigger credit line, you need to work hard to prove your financial responsibility. This process is not fast. When you become a student, you can apply for a student credit card. They typically have a reasonable interest rate, moderate fees and an attractive reward program that matches young people's interests. Their credit limit is about $3.000-$5.000.

Another way to establish credit is to apply for a card for people with no credit, but these offers may come with high finance charge.

Then you get an appropriate plastic, you need to make on time payments and keep your balance low. The lenders regularly report your payments to the main credit bureaus. It will help you improve your credit score and qualify for cards with better features and higher spending limits.

Another solution is to find a co-signer with good to excellent credit score. He or she needs to apply online for a suitable credit card and get approved. Then the co-signer should contact the bank and say that he/she would like to add you to the account. After that you will be able to use his/her plastic. Credit cards for good credit have $10.000-$50.000 spending limit.

Credit Card Lamp What is the best way to rebuild your credit after chapter 13 discharge? I am looking for a unsecured visa or master card good anywhere.
Answer:

If you are going to rebuild your credit, consider Orchard Bank offers. They come with many favorable features that will simplify your credit-repairing process.

Orchard Bank Classic MasterCard® provides a zero introductory APR for 6 months on purchases and balance transfers, for qualified applicants. After the interest-free period the card offers a moderate ongoing APR. If you tend to forget about your payment due date, you can set up email and text messages that will remind you to make a payment. A positive credit report is the key to a solid FICO score!

Orchard Bank Low APR MasterCards come with a low 7.9% - 8.9% variable interest rate on purchases. Actually, this offer includes four cards: Platinum, Gold, Classic, or Secured. The bank will tell you which card you can qualify for after you have submitted necessary personal and financial information.

Credit Card Lamp why cant i get a credit card
Answer:

The Equal Credit Opportunity Act gives you the right to know why your application was denied. The lender must send you a notice that tells the specific reasons. If you didn't receive it, you can make a request within sixty days after you have received a rejection letter. Ask the lender to be specific, because vague and indefinite reasons for denial are illegal. Such reasons as "You did not meet our minimum standards," or "You did not get enough points on our credit-scoring system" are unacceptable. The lender may write: "Your income was low," or "You haven't been employed for a long time." Working on your shortcomings is your key to qualifying for credit offers in future.

A credit denial does not mean that you can't get approved for credit cards issued by other banks. The similar plastics may have different criteria of approval. Compare the offers at our site and apply for a credit card that you feel you have the best chances to get. But be critical: if you have bad credit, don't submit an application for excellent cards.

Credit Card Lamp I just received at the above address a notice of change of address for a credit card from Orchard Bank and I don't have a card from Orchard Bank. Please advise ASAP
Answer:

First of all, contact Orchard Bank and find out exactly what has caused the situation. The notice you mentioned could be the result of a simple mistake, but you shouldn't ignore this signal. The next step is to get a copy of your credit report from all the three credit reporting bureaus. Under The Fair Credit Reporting Act, you have the right to get free copies of the information in your file at each of the three nationwide agencies when you are, or believe that you are, the victim of identity theft. Credit reports will help you detect suspicious activity. For example, you can find fraudulent accounts that have been opened in your name. You have the right to ask that a consumer reporting agency block that information from your file.

Credit Card Lamp Im in the process of refinancing my home, is this a bad time to apply for another credit card
Answer:

If you are refinancing your home, you are able to apply for a credit card and get approved (it depends on your total amount of credit, current employment, income and FICO score). However, anything that causes your total debt to increase might have a negative effect on your current loan application. You may get other terms or features than you expected.

Plus, loan programs have strict guidelines regarding your FICO score. Numerous credit inquiries may lower your FICO score. That's why many banks ask to notify your loan officer before applying for any other credit, including credit cards and personal loans.
