I've got a $500 limit on my card. That's all they'd give me.

They did it to my parents. 5000 to 1000.

Ty my best advice for you is to cut the card up now. Pay off the bill and when you want to use it again ask them to send you another.

I had the loan on my Jeep that I paid off. I try to use it for online purchases, but I really don't like too.

I think they should only be used for emergencies. Building credit is good as long as you don't get too far in the hole. I'm not saying you will...just saying. I absolutely dispise credit card companies and what they allow people to do to themselves.

I use my debit card for everything. I bank with Chase and they are great at watching out for you. If anything happens they take care of me. I know some people say "I only use a credit card for online purchases...I'm not puttin my debit card out there". That is bs. If your bank doesn't watch out for you and take care of fraudulant charges then it's time to get a new bank.

I see what you're saying here(and agree for the most part), but for the sake of argument......Is this not the same as anti's blaming the gun and gunshops for shootings?

I have no problem using my debit card online. That's what I'd prefer to use. Buy something and the money comes out of my account almost immediately=easy to keep track of and you don't have to worry about the bill coming at the end of the month. I only use the CC to try and build/keep credit.

No. Credit card companies don't exsist to serve us. They are a business that makes money off us. Also, anyone can get one...even people who have credit problems.
