Yes, that is actually a great way to boost your score and the best part is the only ones that know it is secured is you and the bank. The credit beureaus do not know |

Yes get a couple of them. But never go over 30% of your availiable balance. Always keep a running balance, but as I said never go over 30% unless you plan to pay it down to below 30% immediately.
Lets say you have two 500 dollar secured credit cards. And your balance on both of them is 450 dollars. You never make a late payment. This will actually make your credit score go down. You dont want your availiable balance to ever go over 30% to really increase your score. |

Yes. Secured credit cards for bad credit are designed to help people rebuild their credits. |

Yes you can. But make sure you read the small printed regulations completely. They should give you the money back when you close the account or when the time limit is over (some credit card only keep your money for a certain amount of period the they give it back to you). But there are other credit cards out there that take some of your money out so when you get it back you will get less money than what you put in. Do a good research. |

I think you need to improve your credit score. To find out specifically what you must do to raise your score, you can order your score report from all three national credit bureaus. In addition to your score<!--you'll get your credit report, an indication of how your score ranks nationally and an explanation of how you can boost your standing.
http://badcredits.awardspace.com/creditscore.htm
In order to improve your credit score, it's important to know where you stand currently. Despite all the media attention given to free credit reports-->you still have to pay to find out your credit score, the three-digit number ranging from 300 to 850 that is the key to your borrowing costs. |

No because it is like a debit card, using your own money. Here is a site that I believe they can get a card.

Now once you have a new card, it's like a second bite at the apple -- don't screw it up. |

First let me explain what makes up your score:
1. Payment history- 35%
2. Total debt vs. Available credit- 30%
3. Length of time establishing credit- 15%
4. Types of credit establihsed- 10%
5. Inquiries and New Accounts- 10%
With that said, how a secured cards can help boost your score is that
#1. It helps build credit with a major revolving account
#2. Depending on how much money you're able to place in the deposit, you could build a card with a high limit which would DEFINITELY help your score because it would improve the ratio of debt vs. available credit. The more you put in the deposit, the higher the limit, the better your score will get.
#3. This allows you to create a nest egg for yourself and build credit at the same time. Keep in mind that as long as you make small purchases that you can pay off on time every month, you get the deposit back.
I posted links to several secured cards
Hope this helps,
Good Luck! |
