1) How old are you?
23
2) Is this your first credit account? You have never had a credit card, line of credit, loan, car loan, department store card, gas card or personal loan, right? A debit/check card does not count.
Yes, do student loans count?
3) If you currently have or had credit, what month/year did you open that account?
Never had a credit card.
4) What exactly are you scared of? 1) Not being approved or 2) Losing control of your credit cards, buying everything in sight on impulse just because it says SALE and turning into RossMAN?
1) Not scared of that 2) Nope, I am scared of buying something then being in debt for the rest of my life.
5) How long have you been at your present job and living at your current address?
Present Job:3 years+ Current address like 4 weeks (I move often since im in college)
6) Do you make a decent wage?
Hell yeah, been working IT for 3 years
7) Would you have anything against applying for a SECURED credit card and can you come up with the $500 (refundable) deposit? If you have something against a SECURED cc, why?
I don't really have anything against it, but it kinda sucks that I have to put the money upfront, reminds me too much of my debit card.
