    Can you explain what you mean by being on the plus side? You’re supposed to have a balance on a credit card, like it’s a debit card?

      My credit cards I’ve had in Germany/Austria were all basically glorified debit-cards which had their own bank account attached to them. Technically I had a credit limit of a couple thousand, but I never went into the negative.

      The only difference (for me at least) was that I could use them to rent a car, which is nice.

      Youre supposed to not be in debt, even if you’re allowed, that’s like the general consensus.
