Basically that’s what non-blue AMEX cards are, cash. You don’t pay interest b/c you pay them off at the end of the month. ---

Having a fuccillo sized line of credit is good, if you stay on top of your payments. Credit score is determined by how timely your payments are and what kind of percentage of your credit line you actually use. If you have a credit line of $200, but only have a balance of 10 cents, that’s fine, I guess. It’s a pretty small percent. Inversely, if you have a credit line of 20k, but your balance is 19k, and you have multiple late/insufficient payments, then that is bad. This is just the little bit I know. for more in depth information, I’m sure some people at the bank could help you out a bit more. as for the original post…HOLY CRAP. ---

i have had 2 credit cards for about 7 months and i have a good credit rating…i belive like 760 or something? in my credit report it said nothing about charging close to your limit as long as you pay it off.
