Credit Card Trouble?
Hi, about 6 months ago I applied for my first credit card and got approved. I made payments on time and never went over the limit. After about 3 months they increased my credit limit. But all of a sudden I lost my job because they had to move to another state. I started using my credit card to pay for bills after finishing everything from my savings account.

Im only $10 away from my credit limit and stopped using it since I dont want to go over. Would this still give me bad credit since im so close to my limit?

not at all, just pay your payments on time!


QandA
it will show up on your report as a minor negative since you have a high credit debt to available credit ratio but as long as you don't go over your limit and make your payments on time there shouldn'tbe any major long term damage.

Take a look at this information page http://www.youbigg.com/Credit-Cards.html it lists types of cards and information, it should also answer your question.

Yes! A major factor in FICO scoring is what is called your credit "utilization" ratio. That is, the amount of credit you have outstanding vs. your credit limit. Here's why getting close to your limit is bad:

When people are not in financial difficulty, they generally pay off their credit cards monthly or leave a small balance. The closer you get to your limit demonstrates that your expenses are exceeding the amount you have the ability to pay off, and so this affects your score. If you charge more than 60% of your available credit limit, this will drop your score slightly. However, charge over 90%, and your score will tumble!


moonman
any card with a ba;ance over 50% will have a slight negative effect. But the effects will be erased as soon as the balance is cut below half. So if you aren't using your score now, it won't affect you as long as you pay it off. If you do need a car or home or another credit based loan, I would consider spreading the debt out over two cards, if you are sure that you can keep the balance of each card under 50%

it won't hurt your credit unless you don't make the payment. if you don't make the payment, they will add a late fee. when they add the late fee, you will be over the limit. when you go over the limit, they add over the limit fee.this quickly gets out of control. do whatever you have to do to make that payment before you screw yourself.

This will most definitely not result in anything negative on your credit rating. The key to maintaining a positive rating is to continue to pay your minimum required by the due date and you'll be fine. This may begin to get tough for you as you're not working but if need be, borrow just enough from family or friends to meet the minimum until you get back on your feet with a new job.

Good luck...!!!

Cheers :)

As long as you don't go over your limit, make at least your minimum payments, and make them on time, your credit won't be affected at all.
