I need a credit card for work - HELP!

Hi Everyone

I have applied for a credit card twice this year, and been refused. I have recieved me credit report and I have no missed payments and good credit.

I need the credit card for my new job, as I will be using up a lot of expenses. Work won't give me a company. Can anyone help? thanks in advanced

regards

  • How timely are your expenses payments?

    Do you get them a month in arrears after submission?
    Or do you get them a few days after your submission?

    If you get them a few days after, can't you submit your expenses every few days? I know this is inconvenient but may get around the lack of a cc problem.
