Starting out with Cap 1

[JerseyGirl1984]

I know this is an older forum but I wanted to say you provided excellent advice. I am following these instruction in building my own credit. Recently, all my bad stuff fell off (over 7 years old) so now I have no credit. I am starting out with my Capital One Platinum and taking it from there. Building credit takes time, its not like you can jump in the cage with the big dogs when your just a 6 month old puppy.

OP,

I started a new thread for you for better exposure
