First Decision = Last Decision asked:


I have an account in Citibank with healthy balance and regular inflows. I have taken a few loans in recent times and did not default in payment. My credit score is around 560.

I also use my dad’s credit card (joint account) with huge credit limit and have excellent repayment history since I’ve been paying on this card for over 14 months. This would have been my own first credit card.
I’m in employment/business for last 3.5 years after completing college.

I’m having a problem with getting a credit card in my name. Since I’ve graduated from high school I’ve had a credit card but its in mine and my dad’s name. We both assumed that it would build up my credit but it turned out to not. I pay a bills in full and on time but I do not have any credit score obtained. No credit card companies will accept my application because I have no credit. They don’t care that I have a full time job and a checking and savings account. Please I really can use some sound advice because I really hope to someday buy a home and it will be impossible without any credit obtained.
I’ve tried to get a store credit card and failed and I’ve also tried to get a card from my bank. The lady said she would see what she can do since she knows me well but I haven’t gotten any luck yet.
