I need a credit card and I need to know more about CC before I get one. Any websites that I can do that? It'll be awesome if there's review on each different credit cards so that I know which one suits me best. THANKS.

each company will tell you whatever you want to know, just read the fine print, if you are just starting out, you wont get that great of a card, but eventually you will get 15 credit card offers in the mail like myself, i get 4 a week from citibank...YAY!

There are and I've been to them but I can't think of them at the moment! Sorry! OOhhh, wait, as a consolation prize, I'll tell you the Zephyr.prime Super Credit Card Trick!!! Here's how it works. Get 3~4 credit cards that are known to offer lots of balance transfer opportunities like Bank1 or FirstUSA or Citibank but not Discover which sucks. Now, keep your charges on one card. Eventually, you'll get a offer for a balance transfer from one of the other cards and the offer is often really good! In this way, you can keep rotating your balance around to get great rates. Now for a PSA: credit cards should only be used responsibly.

Guys, thanks for all your excellent suggestions. Gosh I am lucky. I was just told by my fren a website which I believe could be my university affiliated site. It has just what I need. I will get my card from UMKC.BIZ Hmm... do universities affiliate with a business site? :confused:

Oh sorry, that's not the direct link, the direct link is Credit Card Guide
