KIZIAH asked:


I am continuously getting these credit card offers in the mail. I am concerned both about the security risks of these as well as the trees they waste this way. What can you do to get them to stop sending them?

I have already applied for two credit cards and was denied because I had no credit or not enough income. I am a college student and figure it is a good idea to start establishing some credit. I plan on only using the card for gas and emergencies but can’t find one that doesn’t require good credit or excellent credit. Any info would be great, thanks.

I opened a credit card account 7 months ago and I realized that I don’t need it any more. I am a college student and right now i have 3 credit cards. I do spend money moderately and I do pay my cards off on time. Since I I just started my credit history is ok to cancel my second or third card or should I just keep them open. I realized that I dont need three credit cards. How would it affect my credit score?

I’ve recently gotten 2 credit card bills in my name for cards I never applied for nor do I have. I’m on disability and have filed for bankruptcy a few years previous so I couldn’t get a card if I wanted one. I’m at a loss for what to do since I can’t pay for charges that I didn’t make.

Is there a law that requires credit card companys to hold payments over $500 for 10 days?

Sam B asked:


My credit card company told me that if I make any payments over $500, that they are required by law to hold it for 10 days before crediting my account. Also, they told me that the same holding period is required if I make more than one payment in any billing cycle. I have Googled my fingers off, and can not find any references to any such law. Does it exist? Or is my CC company just feeding me a line.

ADDED NOTE: All my payments are electronic–no need for them to worry about bad checks.

ResonantGlow asked:


I recently got my credit card and there’s currently $3 in pending charges, they’ve been there for a while, but it’s not decreasing my available credit and they’re not getting resolved. My outstanding balance currently depicts what I’ve spent so far on the card accurately, but that $3 pending has been there for a while… Am I getting charged for something I don’t know about?

Last year I became a single mom with three kids. We had good credit until my husband left me. I have a card with a $1000.00 balance. It is now in collections. They will settle for three payments of $289.00 in three consecutive months. Obviously I cannot make those or I wouldn’t be in this situation. Can someone tell me what will happen next?
