Credit Cards

[maiden_girl]

Join a credit union and apply for a credit card...or try your chances with something from Cap1 like the MTV Visa or the Journey. They are known to approve for cards like that that won't grow but it would be for general spending purposes plus no AF. We all have to start somewhere.

My family lives in PA. I live in FL.  Would that work? lol.

I think DCU requires a min of $500. I would probably have to start lower than that for now and increase it later. I'm a full-time student and barely work

Yes it works btw, if a direct family member lives in PA and opens a PSECU account, btw I'm in Florida too, after you get one if you sponser me in I'll pay for your deposit LMAO

me want PSECU lmao! I'm kinda crazy like that haha, or I can do something nice like trade services which would help your scores

That's an awesome starting limit with amazon! I would think you can garden that for 4 months and then ask for a credit line increase. I still say go for walmart in four months. At that time you may be approved for the discover version which can be everywhere that accepts discover

 Congrats on Amazon!!! I would go for a Cap 1 and Walmart immediately, and use them responsibly for a year. The only issue you might have going forward is your  income, but if Amazon gave you $1200.00, maybe the other two will give you a decent  credit line.....

Which Cap 1??? The secured or unsecured?

[CruzImperial]

Cap one pulls from all 3 reports. I would recommend the unsecured if report has no badies
