No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
For those of you with AE charge cards or charge cards in general... How does their reporting effect your utilization and your debt to credit ratio? In other words, If you have no credit limit, how do you calculate this into the debt/credit formula? Does the fact that you are expected to PIF each month negate its effect (positive and negative) on utilization? What if you choose to carry a balance on one of these?
Thanks
This was my thread from yesterday:
It should have the answers you need. If not, there is a lot to find by searching.
Gotcha! Thanks! I think I have been correct all these years in staying away from charge cards. Too much to keep up with for me.
I love charge cards for how they are treated utilization wise.

Not really...I would think the idea of not having it counted in utilization calculations very useful. There's less to manage (i.e. trying to push payments through by a certain date, etc)
Can't wait till I get my AMEX...
