Can you ask for temporary credit limit increase in a credit card?
I have a Visa with a $2,000 credit limit and I am planning to go overseas for 2 weeks. |||Worth a try but I doubt it would be temporary. They want nothing more than for you to get and stay in debt, forever. The most you can manage (min monthly payment), the better for them.
How to limit the number of characters in showInputDiaglog?
Im trying to limit the number of characters that can be entered into my showInputDiaglog box but really don't know how to go about it. I've got the input box and output box working but need to add something to limit the amount of characters and display an error message if the amount is invalid.
Any help will be apretiated :)|||You cannot do this, because such validation is not the intended purposed of the function.

How do you know when the limit of a function is undefined?
How do I know that the limit of a function does not exist when I am given a graph or a table?
PLZ HELP!!!|||You know it exists when the graph flows neatly to a particular point -- the limit. If the graph goes to infinity, or if it heads to different values from different sides, or something even messier happens, the limit doesn't exist.
Same idea with a table.
Basically, having a limit is being "well-behaved". Not having a limit is being a teenager ... I mean, being the opposite of "well-behaved". :D :D :D

How much is too much when it comes to reaching your credit limit?
I know that credit card companies don't want you to come to close to your limit when using your credit card. How much of your credit limit should you use? For example, if you have a $5,000.00 credit limit, how much of that is enough?|||You should never use over 30% of your limit which in your example would be $1,500.00.
Even better is to pay your cards off in full every month that way you never pay interest.|||Actually, you are asking three different questions here. First, the credit card companies want you to come as close to your limit as you can without going over...that increases the amount of finance charges and increases their profit. From a consumer perspective, you want to have absolutely no balance that carries from one month to another, which avoids that finance charge. From the perspective of applying for additional credit such as a mortgage, the company you are applying to would like to see something in the order of 1/3 of the limit or less, which shows them that you can handle credit responsibly. Obviously, there are exceptions (purchase of a major item such as a freezer or other appliances might push you over the 50% mark which can be explained and mitigated by not charging more) and when applying for credit, this should be mentioned.|||It isn't how much of your limit you use, it's the balances you carry. If you max out your card but pay the balance in full every month, the credit card company will probably increase your limit.
Carrying balances of more than 30% hurts your score. Pay off the balance and your score rebounds.
Instead of worrying about how much you can put on the card, worry about only charging what you can afford to pay in full every monht. Just because you have a $5K limit, doesn't mean you have to use a certain amount.|||I think one should make allowance for Interest and Other Charges when considering how much of your allowed credit is enough. If you do not, should you go over your limit even as a result of these charges, you will still be penalized (additional charges) for spending over your limit. I think 90% of your limit is just enough|||i loved economics in class and talking to most of the teachers and other people they all told me the same thing when dealing with your credit limit the most you should spend on it is about 40% so in your case $2000 an more than that and your interest will start to go up

What is the speed limit of a united states freeway?
What is the speed limit of a united states freeway? And...are there any other roads in the country where you can drive above that speed limit? If so, what is the speed limit of that road?|||depends on which part of the U.S. you are driving in. On I-80 in the midwest the speed limit is 75mph and in some parts in Utah it is 80mph, now everyone in the US loves to speed so we usually drive 10mph above the speed limit.|||In urban areas, the speed limit on American expressways can be either 50 or 55. On I-20 on the west side of Atlanta between I-75/85 and I-285, the speed limit is 50. Elsewhere around the ATL, the speed limit is 55. In rural places, the speed limit is 65. REALLY rural areas, where the interstatesoften narrow to two lanes, the speed limit is 70 or 75. I even heard of one stretch of interstate in Texas where people can go 80.|||The speed limits on US freeways vary greatly from state to state and depending upon the type of region you're traveling in. For example in many densely populated areas the freeway speed limit is only 55mph while in most rural areas its at least 65mph. In many western states such as Colorado, Arizona,Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, North %26amp; South Dakota, Utah, New Mexico, Nevada etc it's 75mph The state with the highest speed limit however is Texas with an 80mph limit on long sections of interstate 10 %26amp; 20. Hope this helps!|||All speed limits are determined by the state and there are no road that i know of that you can drive above the speed limit since, at least where i live, all country roads are 55, no matter how far out of town.|||In most areas, the speeds posted are between 55 and 70 MPH. We have on Autobahn here as in Germany with NO speed limits!
There are areas in the desert southwest with no posted speeds - that allow higher speeds.

And besides, 2 terms is enough dont ya think?|||Well, when they set it, the legislators used the years George Washington was in office as their standard. "If it's good enough for George Washington, it should stand at 8" was the phrase used.|||The Republicans couldn't get FDR out of office.|||After Franklin Roosevelt was elected to four consecutive terms, the conservatives in Congress passed an amendment (the 22nd) limiting the president to two terms. They wanted to repeal it to give Reagan a shot at a 3rd term, but they couldn't get the votes together.|||This was done following the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt to 4 terms (1932, 36, 40, and 44). Although he only served 12 years, lawmakers were afraid of a system where one person could gain too much power in our system of checks-and-balances. Hence the 22nd Amendment being ratified in 1951. Although the idea had been proposed as far back as George Washington.|||so the Presidency cannot perpetuate itself into a Dictatorship. It's a very good thing to have two terms for any president.|||It was written into the constitution to prevent one man from becoming President for life. (read King)|||Limit on Presidential power. So you do not get a dictator for life as in some countries. Notice how Vlad Putin is still in charge in Russia even after his two term are up? He wants to keep the reins of power till he dies. After FDR was elected four times the two term limit was put in place.|||for fear that one person would remain in office for too many years creating a dictatorship-like position

Term limits are found usually in presidential and semi-presidential systems as a method to curb the potential for dictatorships, where a leader effectively becomes "president for life".|||because the republicans were jealous that FDR kept being re elected by the people, and so they decided that the only way they would ever have a chance of getting one of their 2nd rate corrupt republican canidates elected ,would be to limit the term of FDR and the presidentcy.
personally I think it`s wrong to tell the american people that they can`t vote for whom they want as president, but have to settle for some 2nd rate contender merely because the person they want to vote for has already served 2 terms.
Government of the people, by the people and for the people.|||Washington set the unofficial precedent for serving only two terms. FDR was the only president who served more than two terms because of the War(WWII). In 1951 the 22nd amendment to the Constitution was ratified officially limiting the presidency to two terms. This country was founded because of the need to escape England which was ruled by a king. The last thing we would want is to be governed by a king, even a benevolent one that was elected by the people.

How does going over my credit limit affect my credit score?
I recently went over my credit limit by $10 and noticed that the credit card account (Cap One) was reported as delinquent on my equifax credit report? How can this happen and what are the consequences to my credit rating/score? Thanks for your response.|||It's always best that you stay 50% and below your credit limit. Anytime you go past that 50%, it serves as a negative factor to your credit file. Once creditors/lenders see this, it makes them then think you're living beyond your means and you're actually charging something in which you cannot afford. As for this being classified as a delinquent item, it will stay on your file for 7 years from the time it went delinquent. No one can tell you exactly how many points your score will drop. And here's a little hint: "No one knows for sure exactly how credit scoring works!"|||Being close to the max or overdrawing your credit card account can have adverse affects on your FICO credit score(s). This is because 30% of your FICO score is based on debt utilization, or how much of the debt you are using. When you are using more than 50% of your revolving debt that sets off flags and makes it look as though you are too dependent on the debt.
The first step is to get balance back under the limit. Then you need to work on getting the balance on the card under 50%. As a general rule your FICO score is best helped when you are using no more than 10% of your credit limit when the statement balance is reported to the credit bureaus.|||before you worry about your credit score you need to worry about your wallet.
Since you went over your limit, you MIGHT be in violation of the terms of your agreement with your credit card company.
So you will be smacked with the over the limit fee (probably about $35.00)%26gt; and you might have to pay a late fee if you paid the minimum amount. If you did not pay the usual amount (plus the late fee) then you WILL be reported as late. If this happens, look for your interest rate to go up so the minimum payment that was 200 before your extra ten bucks could turn into a new payment of 300 buck with your over the limit fee, your late fees and your new interest rate.
Now onto your credit.
Credit scores are comprised of a few things but one of them is the limit on your card verus available credit.
The ideal amount is 35 percent or less. Meaning you dont want to have more than 34 percent of your credit limit being utlized. If you go over that amount your credit starts to drop. since you have NO available credit on this card, your score will be negatively affected.
NOt sure by how much since credit is a combination of factors, how much THIS will impact your score depends on what else you have going on with your other trade lines.
I so hope you make a decision to cut up the credit cards.
Use your stimulus payment to pay down as much debt as you can.

Does China limit the number of christian missionaries because of the hypocrisy of the christians?
China limits the number of missionaries I know, and probably in part because christianity is a western religion, but is part of the reason because the christians pretend to want to teach English or doctor the poor or whatever but really only want to sell their product?

|||MasterCard limits can be as much as $100,000 for a commercial account. In most cases, maximum personal limits are about $10,000 and can be adjusted upwards under various circumstances.
The credit line is determined by credit worthiness and a number of other factors.
The reason MasterCard won't give you answer when you ask is because it is not possible to determine a credit limit by speaking to someone on the phone. Whomever you spoke to did not wish to be heard as committing a particular limit to you by announcing maximum limits.|||The first MasterCard I got in 1973 had a $300 limit and my dad had to co-sign.

To do much more, you have to look at some external router that has bandwidth control, usually found in Linux-based routers such as ClarkConnect or Endian firewall|||if ur router has QoS, that'll be the easist way, otherwise, i believe there's a program called netlimiter that u put on pcs to limit bandwidth
How often can credit card companies reduce my limit on my credit card?
I got a letter from a credit card company saying that they have reduced my credit limit without any previous warning. Is there a limit to how often can they do this? Can they do it how ever many times they wish? For example, once every six months/year?
Also, Is there any way to see it coming?|||They can increase or decrease your credit limit at any time and for any reason....as often as they wish.|||Credit card companies are back stepping with todays economy. Even people with great credit are seeing the same effects. The reason your getting the letter is probably because your debt to credit is over 30%. The split used to be 50/50 meaning you could have 50% of the credit used with 50% available but the economy has pushed it down to 30%.. By the way the big credit card scam now is that they charge you a monthly fee to monitor your credit. What most people dont know is Credit card companies pull your credit every 3 to 6 months anyhow. But they big identity theft scare is marketed so well that consumer pay for it. If your a victim of identity theft it doesnt matter if you find out today or 6 months from now the damage is already done. 1 Credit card company can make as much as 180 million a year just off of credit watch programs they charge you.|||There is technically no limit on how many time they can do it, but I wouldn't expect them to keep doing it. There is no warning, and you usually don't find out until it's already done.

This is what happens when you get too close to your avialble limit on your card.
There is only one way to use credit to get top scores.
You pay in full each month and never pay interest.
It is 100% myth that carrying high balances is good for you, when it actually causes utter devastation to your reports and to your career - since employers check.

Is requesting an increase in a credit card limit treated the same as an application for new credit for FICO?
I know that applying for a new card will reduce my FICO, and that increasing credit limits (while keeping debt amounts constant) will increase my score - but this would not be the case if requesting the increase in credit limit is treated as a new credit card application?|||Depends. Some banks do a hard pull on your reports and check your scores which is called a hard pull. Sometimes they do a soft pull. A hard pull is a new inquiry on your report just like a new application and has to be authorized by you. A soft pull isn't a new inquiry and can be done by your card companies periodically. Soft pull is like account maintainance. Chase always does a hard pull as far as I know for CLI. When you request your CLI, ask them to do a soft pull and not a hard pull and see if they will do that. I tried this with RBS, they dont do soft pulls. Capital One and HSBC did and increased my credit without a hard pull. Cards that offer automatic CLIs tend to do it via soft pulls. As long as it is not a hard pull, it wont count against your FICO scores. Read the difference in the following article.
http://credit-free-report.blogspot.com/2鈥?/a>|||Actually, one of few best ways to increase your FICO score is by having more than one account.
And yes, by having another credit card is good way to increase one's credit limits.
Just, know that having another credit card is like having extra responsibility.
If you can handle paying off both credit card score, than you should go for it.|||When you ask for an increase in your credit limit, your lender performs what's called a periodic review. Which is actually an inquiry with the credit reporting agency. These inquiries created as a result of the periodic reviews are not supposed to be factored into your credit score.

What is the lower age limit for sexual relationships as stated in the bible?
If the bible does not stipulate a lower age limit, why is it that secular societies rather than theocracies have introduced one?|||Guys, seriously, Answer the damn question, ok, instead of waxing lyrical about sex outside marriage and "eroding moral fibre".. Wut? So it's ok for two 9 yr olds to get married?
Let's rephrase: What is the lowest age people can get married in the bible, or does it not state one?|||The Bible commands us to "flee youthful lust" so it should not be fueled from lust.
and also do everything "decently and in order" 1 Corth. 14:40
A decent man would obey the "law of the Land" and marry someone who is legally of age.
|||Limit is marriage, not specifically an age limit. The Bible does not provide an age limit for marriage. What you can learn from the Bible is that marriage is for grown ups, mature people, not for kids.
Societies of different times have determined when a person is mature enough to get married. I am sure that an 14 or 16 years old person of the first century was more mature and prepared for marriage than an information age teenager of the same age.
Romans 13:1 says :
"Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God."
Besides, God appointed secular goverments.|||The Bible actually does not give an age for sex/marriage but it recommends that one should wait until they are past puberty or the "Bloom of Youth".
1 Corinthians 7:36. But if anyone thinks he is behaving improperly toward his virginity, if that one is past the bloom of youth, and this is the way it should take place, let him do what he wants; he does not sin. Let them marry.
This was written to Christians in the first century about 55 C.E.
In early bible time males were not consider men or marry till they where 30. They where considered young and immature. Many also waited till 50 or 60. However, people also lived longer than. If you were going to live to be 300 or 600 years old would you tie up your life with a spouse and children so young or would you live life see the world, acquire some land, build a home and than get married. Enjoy the wife of your youth then some years later have children.
The Greeks, though believed in having a boy as a lovers from a young age. He would have been treated well and provided for in exchange for his ‘love’. Any parent who didn't agree with this would hire a "tutor". His job was not just to educate the child but protect him from the advances of those where looking for a young lover. The tutor would see to it that the boy was completely shielded, not just from advances to become a lover, but from knowledge that there were people who had such designs on young boys. Today some people don't want their children even attending school with youth who believe in casual sex.
As modern societies developed and democratic governments matured, progress saw a need to protect children from exploitation. This was seen first in the area of child labour. As some abused children grew up and became educated they spoke out against other forms of exploitation such as sexual. Particularly as the area of psychology developed in modern democratic societies. As a result limiting the age of sexual consent ended up in the laws.|||The same reason secular societies have a lot of laws; to keep the peace.
The Bible does not say a man can marry a "girl". It does say a man can marry a "woman". It also says a man should not have sex outside of marriage. So, no sex or marriage with a "girl".
Since we have to live with each other in this world, each society determines for itself, at what age "girl" becomes "woman".|||I love how so many people are dodging the question.
Yes, yes, we all know the bible says no sex outside of marriage. What the bible doesn't specify is if it's not okay to marry off a girl who's barely hit puberty to some creepy old pervert.
See: God knocking up Mary at 12, then pimping her out to Joseph.|||Um, given the supposed lengthy life-span of those Exodusorians found in ancient literature, and transposing that from dog years to human years, I'd say the lower limit was somewhere in infancy.
Gross.|||The Biblical view is that sex is for within marriage. No need to give an age.
Actually in the UK the present age of consent is as a result of the work of The Salvation Army (Which is hardly secular)|||the Bible did not say anything specific, while many other scholars did

Is it better for your credit to have several credit cards with moderate limit, or one card with a high limit?
I have zero debt. I also have several credit cards. I am wondering how it will affect my credit to request the highest limit for each card, or if I should cancel all but 2 and have those with high spending limits. Along the same lines, how does "available" credit affect one's credit score negatively or positively? If I get a $50,000 limit on a card (with 0 balance) but say, go to buy a car, will I be denied because I have too much credit out there?|||It's better for your credit to have several cards with modern limit, as the FICO formula used by the credit bureaus consider the number of credit lines in good credit (by their type, e.g. revolving credit, installment loans etc). A lower number of credit lines will result in a lower score (since you'll have more limited history).
Obviously that assume all of them are in good standing - if they're not, the picture changes dramatically.
As to the total credit, what they look at is which percenage of your total credit are you using, and for that it's irrelevant how it's distributed between the credit lines.|||I applied for a credit card from this site and got the credit card pretty quickly. I would like everybody to apply through the site: http://apply-credit-cards-now.info/
|||I always thought that the total amount of available credit is the critical factor, regardless of the number of cards. And, of course, the ratio of used to unused credit.
Nevertheless, I would try to get rid of a couple of cards, but when you close a card make sure you increase the limit with the card(s) that you keep. Close one card every two months or so. Stick with the card with the lowest interest rate, the lowest annual fee and the best perks.
The longer you haven't touched that large credit line, the better your score will be when it comes to buying a car.|||It's overall credit card debt to overall credit limit. There is a point where too many cards and/or too much available credit will adversely affect your credit score but I think that would be really large numbers.
Personally, I don't recommend keeping a stack of credit cards just for the sake of having them. Keep the two oldest major credit cards that do not have an annual fee. Only keep gas or store charge cards if you have some special reason for them. Otherwise, close all the extras -- via letter requesting written confirmation the account is closed.
All those extra cards are just asking for problems. You have to secure and monitor them. They don't really add that much to your credit score.
