I get 1% back also on my no-fee credit card. It turns into "PCPoints" which I can easily spend getting groceries. I just tell them when I'm checking out I want to redeem my PCPoints, and they'll take off a huge chunk of my bill. Recently my grocery bill came to $101 and some change and I redeemed $100 worth of free groceries and handed the lady a couple bucks for a cartload of groceries.

I have no idea what my credit score is. Just checked my credit report, and it seems like my score should be pretty high. I have no negative reports of any kind, my balance used is fairly low (it's ~15%, but most of that is from my car loan) and I have credit history in the US going back to 2003.
On a side note, including the car loan the credit limit on my current accounts adds up to > 70k.
I currently make 25k...though of course that's going to change soon.

I've got one 200m from my condo. And it was built only a year ago. It's massive and awesome."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I have no idea what the interest rates on our credit cards are. I've never carried a balance.
I'd guess 15% or so.

5.4%I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

About 8 percent on LOC, but I never carry a balance. Also use my AMEX (12.9%) for safety, but that's a no balance card anyway.No matter where you go, there you are. - Buckaroo Banzai

No, it's a "charge card". They'll extend short-term credit for purchases, but you have to pay the balance at the end of every month.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

The 12.9% (daily share of that annual rate compounded daily) applies immediately and a hefty late charge applies if you don't pay for a whole billing cycle. It's quite handy for short-term costs in whatever denomination with a very high (and waivable) credit limit. It helps me maintain my discipline in not carrying any debt except house- and car-related. I could convert it to a standard card, but what's the point?No matter where you go, there you are. - Buckaroo Banzai
