First let me say that I DO NOT want to know how or pay you to obtain business credit without a personal guarantee!

I own a small business and I am incorporated, with an EIN and seperate business bank account. I am interested in possibly obtaining a business credit card, or a business line of credit. I was looking at some different banks/card and I notice the majority would like a personal guarantee. I have no problem with that, I just would like to know how it will affect my personal credit. Does the business credit card/line of credit show up on my personal credit report? Is there a hard inquiry when applying and/or giving my personal guarantee? If I apply for a business credit card/line of credit with a bank/credit card company that I currently have a personal credit card through does the business card affect that personal card? Any information would be great. Seems like all the info out there is about getting business credit without a personal guarantee, and paying for that info. Thanks!

Can Anyone tell me a few websites for Business Line of Credit or loan, that do not require personal guarantee? I tried to Google it already but i just got a bunch of junk sites. Thanks for the help.

I currently have four business accounts (Dell, Staples, Office Depot and Exxon). I would like to get a business line of credit or credit card without a personal guarantee, so I can eventually have a business profile under my company name. All of my credit cards are in good standing. But I don't want to have my personal debt tied in with the business debt.

I keep getting offers from Advanta but they ask for the Social Security Number for the business owner. Where can I go to get business credit solely based on the company's Tax ID Number? All of the other credit card accounts were obtained this way.

Do you have any suggestions?
