Do i need to inform bank to use credit card in tenerife?

You do not have to inform the bank that you plan to use your credit card in Tenerife. However, if you do let them know ahead of time that you will be visiting Tenerife, it will prevent them from flagging your account and thinking someone has stolen your card.


Can you designate an authorized user on your credit card to improve her credit rating but make sure she makes no charges?

It depends who your card is with. Some card companies let you add someone and any charges they make will be added on to your balance. Some companies let you have a card with an entirely separate credit limit for your authorised user (but you'd still be liable for the bill). You could do it but cut up the card when it arrives but usually to add an authorised user, they would also need to pass a credit check.

If you apply for a credit card and get rejected does that affect your credit score?

It can affect you for short time. If you want to build your credit, probably the best method is to apply for a secure credit card (Bank of America for example). This card works like a regular credit card, only you're using your own money. Let's say you put in the account 500$; you will have a credit with 500$ limit. Nobody can see that you have a secure credit card 'cause it's working like a unsecured one. That card should help you increase your credit score.


What are the drawbacks of a credit card?

Good about credit cards - Credit cards are actually some times beneficial. When you want to buy a car - some places won't let you because of your credit score. If you don't have a credit card, you don't have a credit score. Draw backs of a credit card - If you don't pay off the amount of money you charged, you will go into debt. So only use your credit card if you KNOW you can pay it back ASAP!

No. No one will ever get your runescape password even if you let someone use a credit card, you only know the password to runescape. If you are talking about someone hacking you on runescape via credit card then no, because credit cards contain information about your card and not your runescape account details.


Is it to sign for someone else's credit card?

I'm pretty sure you're asking "is it illegal to sign for someone else's credit card?" I'm pretty sure that for the most part, provided the user explicitly gives you permission to use their card that it's not against the law. But like taking your parent's card and using it buy some candy without telling them ahead of time (even with the intent to pay them back later and to let them know) is indeed illegal.
