Do you have to be 18 to get a credit card? If so, why? Is there any alternatives to one (or something similar) that you can get if your under 18?

I was wondering if anyone who has been to these credit repair companies? If so, do they really repair your credit? Bye how much? How much did it cost? How long was the process? What's the company name you went to? Would you recommend it to others? What other advice do you have for others that want to improve there credit score? or What to look for?

I have a credit with about 1,000.00 charged on it. My interest is around an extra 20 bucks a month. My friends suggested that I do a balance transfer so I can get 0% interest and pay it off sooner while saving money. I have good credit so getting a new card is not the problem. I just can't decide which to go with because there are about a million to choose from. Any suggestions or website I should visit to help me make a decision?

I have been working at a car dealership for nearly two years, and they said that they were now required to run background checks on everyone. I filled out the form and they sent it in. I ask them how far it went back. They told me it was only to check over the last year. It picked up a shoplifting citation I plead guilty to 4 1/2 years ago. If I had known this was going back that far or that they hadn't run one back that far, I would have explained what had happened before allowing them to send it.

I am very open about what I did and have never done anything like this before. I was in a terrible divorce when I committed this and plead guilty to a summary offense. The public defender told me this was no more than a citation and that it wouldn't affect in the future as far as employment was concerned.

I just got a call and it was a message saying, "This is not a sales company, this is important business matter, please contact us at 1 800 ..... Should I call or is it just stupid that they didn't speak to me in person but rather have a machine telling me to do this? Is it a sales call? Appreciate your help ! =)

Is it enough to do a price change, or do you have to take property off of the market for a period of time?

My husband and I have been thinking of moving lately and we ran into our landlord at Rite Aid where we let slip that we were thinking of moving December 1. That's more than 2 months away. We have not given 30 written notice. Now suddenly our landlord is posting on apartment rental places that our apartment in available and she's scheduled it to be shown to MULITPLE people this Wednesday and then on Saturday. We haven't even given notice to move out! What are my rights? Can she do this? I know once we have commited to moving out in paper she can but this just seems so premature and the thought of having people tramp around my apartment 2-4 nights a week for the next 2 months really makes me mad. :( I should have just kept my big fat mouth shut. And what if something comes up before November 1 (when we will be officially giving our 30 day notice) and we decide not to move?

ps. I live in New Jersey.

I have some outstanding debts on credit cards and am being hounded to pay in spite of me calling the companies to say it is a temp cash flow problem they are bombarding me with phone calls (especially over the weekends) which means I can't relax or sleep and I don't feel well. My blood presure is through the roof and I am starting to feel like I need a real long sleep. If I am not around any more what happens to the debts? Can they demand payment from my estate or does the debt die with me?

He stares, pays unannounced personal (not professional) visits to my office when no one else is around, and says nice things to me in a manner that creeps me out. He has not done anything overtly inappropriate, but I feel very uncomfortable being around him...Oh and he is supposed to be a happily married man.

I had spoken about his behaviour to colleagues of mine and he had stopped coming around for a while, as I think word had gotten back to him. Now, he's suddenly becoming a little too friendly again. I feel like I'm playing a game of hide and seek with this man, which is not pleasant.
