Technically 18, but no one is going to ask your age when you pay in cash unless you're a child. Maybe not then.

you have to be 18 with a credit card if you aren't you have to have a friend do it and if you are planning on having a party there be careful nothing gets damaged if its on your Friends card

Since you're under 18, you're not eligible for a line of credit. My 16 year old cousin tried to apply for a real(Capitol One) card for people with no credit, and he was denied because his SSN showed he was under 18. The Visa Buxx is a great choice. You are protected by Visa's Zero Liability policy, and you have the control of it being prepaid. You can easily add money to it. And it works all places Visas work! The bad- some smaller(newer, more cautious) stores may not let you use them... A 16 yr old with a credit card??

There are, but I would advise some caution.  One site is www.creditexpert.com which is run and operated by Experian.  You sign up online and give them your credit card number and personal information, try out a credit monitoring service designed to help prevent identity theft, and in return receive a free credit report and credit score.  The only problem is that you must cancel the service before the free trial ends (usually 30 days).  If you forget, they charge your credit card automatically for 1 year of credit monitoring service.  Also, to cancel the service you have to call the company and wait on hold around 15-20 minutes.  I would actually recommend getting a free copy of your credit report from www.annualcreditreport.com and then paying only around $5 extra for your credit score per credit bureau.

Most bank and financial institutions (and even some grocery chains!) offer credit cards. Apply within.\n\nIf you are looking for credit card numbers that you can use on the internet, that is illegal for most uses... \n\nIf you are looking for valid credit card numbers for testing an internal application, usually you can make those up or query your software for the correct algorithm.\n\nIf you are looking for valid credit card numbers to test with your application in a live situation with a real bank etc, you are usually out of luck. You will need to contact your bank or financial institution and enquire about whether they have a "sandbox" environment to test in. These environments will accept "dummy" credit card numbers.\n\nYou can not (and should not) use real credit cards to test your application. If you insist on doing so, you can use your own card, with all the consequenses thereof...\n\nGood luck!

I would advise you not to apply for one. I am almost 21 years old. I don't have one and have never needed one. Every person I know under the age of 40 with a credit card is in serious debt. I am too, because my husband had three cards when we got married. Your safe choice is to not get one. However, if you feel you must have one, I would open a checking account. Most banks offer a low interest rate on credit cards to people that have checking accounts with them.

Unfortunately yes.  As long as he/she has your personal information (full name, date of birth, SSN, mother's maiden name, etc...), credit cards can be obtained over the internet without even signing an application.  It's insane!

I say just open a bank account.  They need it just to verify your identity.  They wont withdraw any funds from it unless you instruct them to.

you already have proof of his illegal activities in the form of your parents' credit card invoices. If he is making unauthorized purchaes, it is theft, credit card fraud, and uttering a forged document, or any combination of the above, and maybe a few I'm unaware of. Simply highlight the suspect purchases, notify the bank who issued the card, and notify the local Police and or Magistrate that you wish to press charges for the unauthorized use of the credit card. Best of luck to you.

Contrary to what most people think, social security numbers are not super-secret information. Collection agencies, lawyers, and others have access to tools that can be used to locate you based on just a name and address, and can get your social security number quite easily. Instead of ignoring them, write a letter to the agency asking for proof of the alleged debt. Under law they have to provide this "validation". If they then provide the proof, you had best pay it unless you dispute the charges, otherwise you can bet it will pop up on your credit report. Even a small $20 collection can be very damaging to you for a full seven years, so my advice would be to just pay it.

Yes, unfortunately for the credit card company and fortunately for you, he can't be held liable for the credit card purchases if he's under 18.  You should call them up and demand to speak to a supervisor, then explain the situation to them.  Don't mention him lying about being old enough to open an account, though.  This happens more than you'd think, but the bottom line is that by law he cannot enter into a legally binding contract unless he's 18.  So he's off the hook.
