Go to one of those medium size jewelery/furniture companies, in Cali try Roberto's Jewelery or some furniture place, get some TV or DVD hometheater or a watch for about 300-500 dlls, (you must show that you work),then , if the credit is for say, 6 months,pay every bill on time, when you are done, go get something twice the price, etc it will take you around a year, then you can apply for a credit card and do the same on-time pay procedure for the rest of your life, just one thing: make sure whoever or whatever company gives you the credit practices reporting to a credit bureau , some places dont!.

you can get a secured credit card. you could get a loan secured by your savings and pay it back on time to help establish credit. either one.

See if you can get a one from your bank.

Get a credit card. Go to your bank branch and ask them to get you one. If you are a student, or if you have been with the bank for a while, you should not have any problems. However it is important to be aware that in order to have a good credit, you must make your payments ON TIME. Also, when you get your card bill , pay the entire thing at once. Do not leave a balance for the following month.

apply for a credit card, buy inexpensive stuff, and always make your payments on time, preferably in full (that way you won't have to pay interest, either). Look for a card with low APR, no annual fees, etc.

You CAN get a credit card with no credit. I recommend getting a secured credit card. (That is where you put up the money for the initial credit limit and based on your history with paying your bills on time and such you will get increases). Their rates are lower as well as membership fees. If that is not up your alley, try the using the website I listed under sources. BE SURE TO READ THE FINE PRINT ON ALL THE FEES!!
