there probably wont be enough time, and you'll have to get someone to garuntree your rent
You could approach your bank: they are more likely than anyone to give you a credit card

Try for a Capital One Classic Card. This card is especially aimed at customers who have credit problems (or who've never had a card before). It's almost impossible to be refused! Apply online, here:
http://www.capitalone.co.uk

Important note: The interest rate on that card is extremely high (29.9% APR). It's a great card for starting to build up your credit rating (for example, by paying it off in full every month) but try to avoid running up any long-term debts on it because you'll end up paying a fortune in interest charges.
