I'll be 28 in Jan and still don't have one But really...I don't think I want one..don't they all have annual fees, some of them redonkulous?

The bce doesn't have af and matches with bofa 1-2-3.

Besides, if you decide to get another one later on in life, the backdating will help you lots.

I was 21 back in January when I got the Blue Cash Everyday.

Many of their cards do not have annual fees, but all of their charge cards do. If cashback is what you are looking for, they are not really the best for that. The Blue Cash Everyday and Business Simply Cash is what I have and they are alright. However, most of their other cards with cashback are not very appealing at all.

20 AMEX green and I then proceeded to screw up my credit with Sears, Dillards, Discover and Capital One. I couldn't get credit for a while and then ignored cc's for a while. Jut now got back on the cc wagon.

Thanks. December is my 1 year marker so I hope to get over the 10k hump with them then.
