    Getting cash on a credit card is almost always expensive. Typically the APR is higher, plus you pay a fee for each withdrawal (perhaps 3%). Some credit cards restrict the amount you can draw in cash.

    What do you need the cash for, if it's not for purchases?

    Can you increase your overdraft? Do you already have a credit card on which there might be some kind of offer?

    Getting a new card right now might be difficult if your present income is not high and you don't have much history.
