Pressbox (Press Release) - "No one should ever apply for a credit card; even if it's a pre-approved offer in the mail or an online application, without first understanding credit cards," says David Hurlbert, manager of creditfederal.com. "Applying blindly for a credit card will only leave you in the dark until you receive the first statement of charges."

Credit Federal provides free information on the language of credit cards and how to choose the credit card that's right for you. Understand the terminology, find out what to look for when choosing a card, know what to do if you're overdue, and learn how to safeguard your credit card.

"You won't know if a credit card is right for you," adds David Hurlbert, "if the card company doesn't provide full details about their services."
