I have been trying for years to get a credit card and I get denied all the time! I have no debt, I make decent money and II pay all my bills on time! What I dont understand even more is that I know people who are up to 50,000$ in debt and they can get credit cards without any problems....So if I am better with money than them, why cant I get credit???? IS it because the credit card companies like people who have debt becasue they make money off them for interest??? I just can't understand this at all....it's ridiculous....all I want credit for is too book trips and things like that....I would not go crazy and use it as free money like everyone else does!

yeah that would be my point aswell but i know people that just put a 1000 euros on their account for like a month and then get a creditcard if you try it like that then maybe?

really for some guys its just a matter of luck when it comes to credit cards but i must tell you that credit assessors look beyond most of those things you look at that makes you think you are more qualified than those guys i think you should try alternatives.i used to have this problem as i am a foreigner in the land in which i reside as such was not granted a credit card by the bank i use but i came across a company after some searches and its been awesome,they sell mreloadable virtual credit cards which i have tried and it worked,you can even use it to verify apypal accounts and make payment anywhere the visa logo is accepted.it will be in your name as well.best of all you spend as much as you have on the card.you can send me your email address and i will ,send you a link maybe you should try this one .i guarantee you will thank me for it
