Yes, I have. I bank with Bank of America and when I applied, they approved me just recently. Go in at the bank you bank with and try not to do it online.. I believe it's easier to get one when you talk to someone inside the bank? If you do not have a bank account, open one first with a checking n a savings then open a credit card later.

i agree i got bank of america ,they want to give me a secured cc but im not ready for it yet.the way it works is you gotta give them 300,or 600 bucs and you use that money to build your way up to a real ccard.he said about a year.

i have wells fargo and a secured cc through them. for me, i put a deposit of 500 but only use no more then 30% of my $500 limit. i found that knowing that i have a limit helps me keep on track with my cc. i only use 30% of my limit because the credit bureaus look at how responsible you use the line of credit on your card. i use my cc for small things, like gas or lunch, then pay it off fully every month.

You can get a credit card with any bank or company you want. But the thing is you need to start with a secured credit card since you have no credit. That is same for everyone who's starting to build the credit weather he is a citizen or not. You make a deposit for the secured card and the amount of deposit is your card limit. The best way to build credit is use 25-30% of you limit (my banker told me up to 50% is pretty fine) and pay the balance on time every month. After about 6-8 months, you can apply for a credit card with better option, not secured. Go in to your bank and talk to one of the bankers for more information on how to build credit.
