First, you need to purchase a 3 in 1 credit report so that you know your score and you have a starting point to make your battle plan! If you want to learn ways to improve your credit then visit http://www.thecreditrepairmanual.com

It takes years to build credit but if you have anything bad on your credit report it takes 7 years for it to be removed you can also challenge things on your credit file and if they don't respond it will get removed from your file and you can get a free copy of your credit file from consumer credit reporting companies: Equifax, Experian and Trans Union. if you haven't already at this website www.annualcreditreport.com

I think it is too soon to try again you will be given a higher rate based on your not so good credit. You need to be patient and give your credit a time to be good enough to qualify you for a better interest rates.
Good Luck.

It took me almost a year to build up a good score and then (out of the blue) a judgement showed up on it. 120 pts right off the top! I was able to get it vacated - but it's taken me another year to get back up to where I was when it hit.
Just keep paying things on time. Washington Mutal was my first credit card when I didn't have much credit and they offer free credit score monitoring every month. You might check with them about getting a credit card (secured or unsecured - depending on your situation).

It can take years to build up credit. A missed payment will effect your report for several years. The legnth of your credit history also effects your score. Just continue trying to maintain a clean credit history and save up your money. I would check your credit score maybe once every 6 months, possibly once a year to see if it has improved. Strangely enough, making repeated credit inquiries can negativly effect your credit score.

It depends WHY your credit is not good. If it is a question of having bankruprcy or collections on your report it can take a long time of good credit management to get your score back up.
If you simply have lack of credit history, or too much debt then you score can raise alot faster by simply paying off some bills.
