Credit Rating: How It Will Affect the Card You Get
It is common knowledge that your credit card payment habits will affect your credit rating. If you use your credit card a lot and pay all your credit card bills on time, it will improve your credit rating. On the other hand, each time you go over limit or pay your bills past due, your credit rating suffers. And quite obviously, falling into credit card debt will surely hurt your credit rating very badly. However, do you realise that it is also the other way around? That it is not only your credit card habits that will affect your credit card rating, but that in turn your credit rating can affect the credit card you get?
The effect of your credit rating on the credit card you get is very simple. The better your credit rating, the more credit card choices you will have. This is because of the simple fact that your credit rating a measure of your trustworthiness when it comes to paying off your bills and loans. Hence, the better your credit rating is, the more trustworthy you will be in the eyes of credit card companies, and the more likely they are to approve you for their best cards. Credit ratings are the reason why you might be qualified for the best credit card a company has to offer, while your friends, who makes the same amount of money as you do, will not.
Aside from being the deciding factor on whether you will be qualified for the best credit card that companies have or not, your credit rating also determines your credit limit and annual percentage rate (APR).
Even if two people may hold the same kind of credit card, their credit limit may vary greatly due to their credit ratings. However, when it comes to credit limit disposable income is an equally huge factor. After all, even with an excellent credit rating, if your disposable income is quite meager, you can not expect to be extended the same amount of credit that a millionaire will be given.
When it comes to APR though, credit rating often does play a bigger role that your disposable income. Your credit rating reflects your dependability in paying your bills. If you have a good credit rating they know that lending money to you is not that risky, so that they will be willing to charge you lower interest rates. This means that by having a great credit rating, you not only get the best credit cards Ireland companies have to offer, but also the best rates for whichever card you have.

Question by almcneilcan: How can I get a business credit card despite bad credit rating in Canada? Help! I’m assay to start up a business and all I need is a $ 10k business credit card. But I have a bad credit rating and so far lenders insist I must have a strong co-signer. But I tin’t get anyone to do this for me (long story) Any suggestions?In answer to the first responder, it’s a self-employed business. I’m the only employee. It’s a long story but my personal financial mess is a combination of the high tech collapse (I’m an engineer) that has gone on 6 years, 3.5 years unemployed for myself. Plus, I have a medical condition. I finally made a bold travel to get around the medical condition so I can start my own business, now all that is stopping me is a co-signer. I agree, it’s not an enviable position but I have no other choice. Is there any way to get a credit card without a co-signer when you have a bad credit rating?

Answer by Rx_Mich Actually, it’s an abruptly story. No one else wants to stick their neck expose (co-signing) to cover your debts after you have exhibit little ability to handle your own affairs. They will be 100% financially responsible if you default on your debts and they know it. Operating a business is similar operating your own financial affairs on steriods.Who in their right mind would start a business on credit card with up to 32% anual interest? That is a very large nut to breaking on top of paying for employees,your wages, materials, rent,call and lighting…. then look for making a profit too???Tell me what kind of business you are going into that has a 32% profit after all expenses and I will start one in a heartbeat (as long as it is legal to do so)Maybe you had better sit down and work out a business financial intending… then work towards fulfilling it and obtain the capital you requiring by work and saving the start-up funds… then someone might be willing to listen to your business idea. If you don’t believe in yourself then others will not believe any differently. There is no shortcut to success. Those who cut corners are the first to fail.Response to additional details:The most probable way you will get a card is with that much money in their account. Your credit limit will match the amount of money in the savings account held by the credit card company. That way you can start building up a history of purchases and paying the bill on time. You have to re-establish a history of being reliable. After a couple of years of a spotless record, you may find someone who is willed to issue you limit credit and further construct from that. I know you are looking for a fast way to do this…. sorry probably not going to happen.I am not trying to beat up on you… I am trying to show you how others (creditors and co-signers) will look at this. Even if you have lost your job,any work is breaking than none… even fliping burgers. 10 G’s is not an undoable make but it might take you 1 year to get there working minimum wage. Hopefull you will do the numbers and see that if you are holding 10Grand worth of debt on a credit card, your whole business profit will go to support the debt and you are working for nothing.If you were a planned then you are used to solving problems with a systems approach and a thorough evaluation. It doesn’t looking like you are using your schematic education on this recently problem. Please write up a plan and look at all the issues systematically. Form a feasable plan and go after your dreams.Hope that helps
