[quote=YENJAMES,365807]Hi, if you open a bank account at a chinese bank and have an active foreign credit card you can get an international credit card issued through that bank but it will be tied to your existing card so that if you skip town without paying they can recoup the balance owed from your existing card. You will not be able to get a credit card without an existing credit account unless you are working in China and own (long term lease...lol) a house. If you don't own property and are working you can get a domestic credit card that is only good in China but can only use online at sites that accept Union Pay which are limited. I am working here and opted for the domestic card from the Bank of China just for convenience and they were giving away free Beijing Olympic gifts as a promotion last year for the Olympics...lol Hope this helps.[/quote]
