I have three different credit cards, all in good standing, and all with excellent payment history. A Bank of America Gold card, an American Express Clear, and a Chase Visa. I've had the Bank of America Gold the longest, since sometime around June of 2005 I guess (Bank of America is also the bank I use). It started as a $500 limit secured card (where you give them $99 to deposit in a safe account for a year, and they give it back if you do well). I made multiple payments some months...so much that they made it a regular credit card in 10 months instead of 12 and I got the money back early. The bank lady had never seen that before. Now I have a $5,000 credit limit on it, and almost no balance. The only drawback is a $29 annual fee. I think this is only the second time I've paid it (for the month of June) since I've had the card, just to keep the history and credit limit going for almost another year.
