Default Trying to get a credit card, but no credit. Anyone else?

Basiclly i'm trying to get a credit card but have no credit so can't really get accepted. Does anyone know of any with decent rates? Figured someone may have already gone through this. Thanks

I can't see how its possible for a person to not get a credit card. I get like 3 offers a day for credit cards

google credit cards and start calling. your gonna get fucked for the first year with no credit. no credit = high interest rate. buy ----, then pay it off. do it fast, and dont make minimum payments for about a year, then re-apply...and ask for a lower IR.

I buy everything with my credit cards. The only difference is I pay off my bills each month so the credit card companies don't make a dime off of me. If your an idiot than you shouldn't own a credit card but if your not a complete smacked *** than credit cards are great

just apply for a gas card/ credit card. or get one of those secure credit cards from your bank... its a start. just be responsible, or it will bite you in the *** in the future..
