as with FaderMonkey, i didn't bother to check through all of the past questions, so if my question has been asked before, I'm sorry too.
i was thinking that it would be good for me to get a credit card to start building some credit. i'm 20, i know i wouldn't use it for stuff that i didn't already have money for, mainly just for building credit and maybe internet purchases.
i applied for a student card and got rejected. when i called to find out why, they said it was because of my student loan. i have a government student loan now for almost $10,000, but i am not paying it off now because i am still in school.
i was wondering if my applying online would have had anything to do with my rejection. if i was to go in to the bank and apply in person would they be more appathetic to the student loan issue? i would like to get a card from this bank as it's the bank i deal with regularly and i really like them. if they turn me down in person, might i have better chances somewhere else?
thanks.
