I got my first credit card this time last year, and even though I've perpetually paid WAY more than my minimum payment every statement, I still can't get a motherfucking credit increase/new credit card. They always deny me because of the length of time (or lack thereof) I've had a credit card, as well as the fact that my balances are often high (when I get charged a measley $8 or so per month for having a high balance, it's hard to resist!).
So last week I paid off more than half of my balance, so out of the pitiful $750 credit limit I have, I have $400 free ($350 balance, IOW, wouldn't want you guys to hurt yourselves figuring that one out ). And I STILL just got denied for a musiciansfriend card (mostly cuz of the time issue, which is infuriating, cuz I have no control over it), and when I applied for a Sweetwater card, they said they couldn't immediately approve me cuz the app. needed "further review," which I'm pretty sure is still a kiss of death. So basically, does anyone know any really shady places with super high interest rates I can apply that might actually approve me? I'm very confident in my ability to make my payments, so I'm willing to take the chance of having super-high late fees/APR/etc.
