If someone used your credit card on an internet gambling site without your permission what happens if you dispute the charge?

Did you report the card loss to the issuer? If charges appear on your statement and you know that you did not make the charges, you can contact the credit card issuer to dispute the charges. You may have to fill out an affidavit that states you did not [have] knowledge of or consent to these charges. The credit card issuer will then go back to the company submitting the charges to dispute the amount. The credit card issuer should send out confirmation of your request to dispute, confirmation of the amount that may be credited back to your account, pending the dispute. Once they have completed their investigation, your account will be billed for the charges [again] if you cannot prove the case of identity theft/creditcard theft/fraud and the disputed amount was credited to your account. If the dispute is legit, you should receive notification of this. Keep all correspondence regarding this for as long as information can stay on your credit report, which in most cases, is seven years. [But keeping for ten won't hurt].

What is the best prepaid credit card available to teenagers age 16?

You might consider checking into this one.. http://www.upsidevisa.com/Splash.aspx They have a couple different ways to use their cards and their customer service is excellent. I got this card for my son when he recently went on a class trip out of the states. Best out there for what we needed it for and it is safe too. Way better than any other prepaid card that I have seen out there. My son still has use of his card and I give him an allowance on it. It helps teens feel more in control and have a bit of freedom and helps them learn about budgeting and spending. Teens are encouraged to sign up for their own page on the upside site so they can track their spending and such. There is a point reward system too. It still needs a parent to get the money from for the card if you are under 18, I do believe. BTW, its not a credit card, its a debit card but its reloadable, unlike some others. Please go check out their site. It may be what you are looking for.

If the balance is not paid in that time, the user is charged interest on the remaining balance.

What if you are denied credit?

Denied CreditIf you are denied credit, federal law requires that the creditor give you a notice that tells you the specific reasons your application was rejected or the fact that you have the right to learn the reasons if you ask within 60 days. Indefinite and vague reasons for denial are illegal, so ask the creditor to be specific. Acceptable reasons include: "Your income was low" or "You haven't been employed long enough." Unacceptable reasons include: "You didn't meet our minimum standards" or "You didn't receive enough points on our credit scoring system."

If a creditor says you were denied because you are too near your limits on your credit cards or you have too many charge card accounts, you may want to reapply after paying down your balances or closing some accounts. Credit scoring systems consider updated information and change over time.

Sometimes you can be denied because of information from a credit report. If so, the Fair Credit Reporting Act requires the creditor to give you the name, address and phone number of the credit reporting agency that supplied the information. You should contact that agency to find out what your report said. This information is free if you request it within 60 days of being turned down. The reporting agency can tell you what's in your report, but only the creditor can tell you why your application was denied.

If you've been denied, or didn't get the rate or terms you want, ask the creditor if a credit scoring system was used. If so, ask what characteristics or factors were used in that system, and the best ways to improve your application. If you are approved, ask the creditor whether you are getting the best rate and terms available and, if not, why. If you are not offered the best rate available because of inaccuracies in your report, be sure to dispute the inaccurate information in your credit report.

If you have been denied credit entirely (often because of the Catch-22 situation where lenders don't want to offer credit to anyone without a credit history--but how do you get a credit history without credit?), you can apply for secured credit cards, which essentially allows you to deposit a sum of money (say, $500) and then "charge" purchases, up to $500. By using this card responsibly (such as by not going over the limit--even better, creditors like it if you use no more than 30% of your available credit, as it shows you aren't likely to incur debts you can't pay--and by paying your bill on time--never late, even by a minute), you build a credit history. This record of good credit usage will help you get other kinds of credit--a car loan, a mortgage, etc.

yes you can get a debit card when you are 13 but you have to get it linked from your parents/guardians. but you can not get a credit card because the banks think that 13 year old are responsible enough, which i can agree with for the credit card but that you can not get a single debit account that is not linked to your parent/guardians account, i think is diabolical.Also you can go to stores (wal-mart,speed way) and buy reloadable gift cards.
