<p>A number of credit card companies now issue credit cards with embedded RFIDs (radio frequency ID tags), with promises of enhanced security and speedy transactions. But on today&#8217;s episode of Boing Boing tv, hacker and inventor Pablos Holman shows Xeni how you can use about $8 worth of gear bought on eBay to read personal data from those credit cards &#8212; cardholder name, credit card number, and whatever else your bank embeds in this manner. Fears over data leaks from RFID-enabled cards aren&#8217;t new, and some argue they&#8217;re overblown &#8212; but this demo shows just how cheap and easy the &#8220;sniffing&#8221; can be. This episode is part of our ongoing series of interviews with some of the thinkers, hackers, and tinkerers at the O&#8217;Reilly Emerging Technology conference this year. For more episodes of Boing Boing tv, visit tv.boingboing.net.  <H3>Help answer the question about credit card</H3>Credit cARD?<br />i just recently opened a bnk account. and i added money to my savings account. so that money that i put in there can i still use it with my card if i was to go to a store or something? or can only take money out from the atm? another ? i wanna ask what is the diff. b/w credit and debit? thnx for the help</p>

<p>This no-win cycle can keep people with a non-existent, limited or negative credit history from getting approved for a credit card. But it doesn&#8217;t have to if you understand the type of cre<span id="more-7"></span>dit cards available and how to build a good credit history.</p>
<p>When it comes to credit cards, the type of card you apply for will depend on your situation. If you&#8217;re a student, you&#8217;ll, naturally, sign up for a student card. But if you&#8217;re a non-student with a non-existent or bad credit history, a card that is secured or obtained with a co-signer may be your best option. With co-signed credit cards, the co-signer guarantees and is responsible for the debt. This means that the co-signing person is responsible for paying the full amount of the debt if the card holder doesn&#8217;t pay. In fact, when co-signed debt goes into default, three out of four times co-signers are normally asked to repay what is owed, according to the Federal Trade Commission.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the issuing bank can attempt to settle the debt without first trying to collect from the card holder. The bank can also use the same collection methods against the co-signing individual, including suing and garnishing wages. If the debt is not paid, it can leave a negative mark on the credit history of the co-signer, as well as the card holder.</p>
<p>Despite the risks, a co-signed credit card can be great tool for helping a friend or relative build their credit history so they can one day obtain a card on their own. Secured, co-signed and pre-paid credit cards offer viable options. But you should start building a strong credit history, so you can obtain a regular credit card on your own in the future.</p>
<p>First, you need to understand how credit card issuers determine credit worthiness. The approval criteria varies from among issuing banks, but generally relates to what&#8217;s often called the three C&#8217;s of credit: capacity, character and collateral. Capacity refers to your ability to pay based on your income and existing debt. Collateral refers to any assets you have that can secure payment, such as bank accounts or home ownership. Character refers to factors like your payment history, length of employment, etc.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To get a good idea about how your application will fare with credit card companies, check your credit history with one of the major credit reporting agencies: Experian (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.experian.com)," target="_blank">www.experian.com),</a> Equifax (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.equifax.com)" target="_blank">www.equifax.com)</a> and TransUnion (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.tuc.com)." target="_blank">www.tuc.com).</a> These agencies access your payment information directly from the companies you have credit with, as well as from government agencies such as the legal court system.</p>
<p>Credit reporting agencies use the information in your credit history to determine your credit rating or credit score. Credit scores, also known as FICA or Beacon scores depending on the CRA, generally range from 350 to 850. Most banks will approve you for credit if your score is at least 620. If your rating is 720 or higher, banks will offer you their lowest interest rate.</p>
<p>Generally, y our credit score is determined by your payment history for the last two years. T echnically, CRAs calculate your score using a closely-guarded formula. TransUnion, for example, determines credit scores using a variety of factors, including: how you pay your accounts, how much you owe and how often you&#8217;ve applied for credit.</p>
