How come I don't receive any more credit card offers in the mail anymore?

Back when I was 18 in the late 1990's after high school, I used to receive a lot of credit card offers in the mail ... but now, I hardly get any. why?

I paid off all of my personal debt except the house, and have exdcellent credit, so you can have some of my wastebasket filler.

We wouldn't know, what is your credit score. I get at least 5 offers a week still even with this credit crunch. of course they are all shredded.

Because they got burned by offering credit to people who couldn't pay them back.

Because having no credit was better than having whatever credit you have now?

    When applying for online loans there are lots of things to consider both the benefits and disadvantage of online loans. The benefits is that you can get your cash within 24 hours if you have all the requirements needed such as active bank account and a minimum monthly salary of 10.000DKkr. The disadvantage if that you pay higher in interest rates. But as of today there are lots of people who uses online loans for their temporary financial needs. And other times online loans can save your credit score.

    When you're looking for a home, that's the only good reason a high credit score is important. Other than that, anything about 660 (good) will do the trick. Excellent is between 750/840

    So after having to bail out the banks, after they created a loans system that bankrupted themselves by playing monopoly and creating dodgy loans around the world, the banks are now claiming that the US has a low credit score. It is time too make GE and other major corporations pay their taxes, stop Goldman Sachs from creating its own rules and skimming money out of the Federal Budget.

    Where does the Credit Score come from? Trans Union like Credit Karma? Edit: Nevermind. It was in the FAQs. It's from Experian's National Equivalency Score.

    My brother wanted to get his first credit card about two years ago. BAC only offered him a secured card (with an annual fee). We both thought that was b.s. because he had just finished paying off a car loan (co-signed with parents). He has a credit score of 740 and might have had *one* late payment in the 5 year car loan.

    First apply for a gas card. If rejected, contact Orchard Bank or somewhere else that offers a secured card. Make sure it is a secured card and not a stored value or debit card. Give them $500 or whatever you can for a credit card. Never carry a balance and try not to use more than 10% of the limit. Save $1000 and try to get a signature loan, if no, then get a secured loan. Never be late on a payment. Do this for a 18 months and have a 720 or better credit score

    I don't believe her credit score is terrible, it's just terribly new - she opened her first card just a few short months ago, and she's saddled with student loan debt.

    I was mostly wondering if anyone knew of any "gotchas" or anything. Or whether it'd be detrimental to my credit score to open one.
