I was a cardholder on an amex account for a while before I turned 18. I'm not 100% sure about this, but if I recall correctly the account activity showed up on my report.

IIRC Dan boasted about having one before 18. Try applying and put in a DOB that's a bit older.

I don't see why it won't work. I'm not sure what legal means, it definitely isn't kosher ;)

If I just got approved for my first card (capital one) and I have no credit history - would it hurt me (like get denied) to apply other cards for example citi card etc...
I got a Capital One card a few months ago then I applied for Discover it card 5 mo. later & was approved for $2000 :)
