    I don't think you can purchase a credit card from someone. You have to apply to any credit card issuing authority, here read Bank, and then have it.

    In Axis Bank I have an account and when I applied for a credit card they told me I could only can have it if my account is 6 months old and I must have Rs. 10000 as a balance in my account. I have completed 6months in last December though I haven't applied for it yet. Hope they will not demand Rs. 1lakh in my account as balance.

    Well in this period of recession or financial crisis, bank may has changed their rules in delivering credit card but one can have it if they apply for it as Govt has issued a notification about it.

    Well. seems you are asking something for vcc? you only can purchase and if you want to obtain a credit card, you'd go to some bank to issue it .

    Friend, it's not possible for you to get one credit card with ease. You must be an employed person with salary of more than Rs. 5,0000 per month to apply for a credit card in any bank. That's why people are forced to use VCC to verify their paypal accounts, otherwise every one would have bought a credit card for themselves.

    Lemon, it is not necessary to be a salaried person with Rs. 50,000 paycheque for having a credit card. You can have it from any pvt bank without any such constraints.

    Getting a credit card is a difficult job now because of the world wide recession.You have to apply in banks like ICICI, Axis HDFC etc, but now the requirements are more to get a credit card for yourself.

    Friend, you can apply for a credit card in any bank, provided you meets the basic requirements like salary Rs. 50,000, working in reputed company, etc. So it's not really so easy to get one, otherwise every one would have bought a credit card by this time.

    To get a credit card from SBI or like any other public sector bank, you should be salaried person (or established businessman), but not that your salary must be greater than 50,000 per month, though it should be greater than certain level.

    Some two years back getting a credit card was so easy and so many youngsters have misused it and there are reports of so many youngsters getting a credit card for themselves and then misuisng it and now it has become very difficult to buy a credit card as you have to show so many documents

    I think you are talking about debit card. Yes we can debit credit card in any bank with just minimum deposit of Rs. 500 or 5,000 depending on which bank we use. But for the credit card, it's not so easy to get one unless and until you are an employed person or your father is an employed person with good salary.
