I'm not exactly sure what you mean by never knowing when you need pay. Every credit card has a certain due date during the month. This varies based on the card you have. If you want to build good credit, then you need to make at least the minimum payment on time each month. As far as I know, if you do that, then you'll be building up good credit.

CapitalOne said they would mail me my card in a few days but its $39 per year,thats only $3 a month but I am just scared of being robbed by it.
Awaiting suggestions.

After a quick search, I found this card from Capital One for
people with limited credit history.

Has any of you used it?Is it safe enough?
Does it help build up credit score?

As I mentioned before, debit cards don't have any influence on your credit score.
