Subject: New here need a secured card

Hi I'm new to this forum. I don't know my credit score because I won't pay for it but I know it's bad.

I have card that where charged off. Some that are in collections. I had a judgement filed against me which was one by default and I am now paying.

I want to rebuild my credit and stop using my debit card for purchases but I don't qualify for a credit card. What secured card has the lowest fees?

Hi Manny, welcome to the forums. Did you know that you can obtain a free copy of your credit report at annualcreditreport.com, you can request one a year from each of the credit reporting agencies.

How old are you charge offs, after seven years they will fall off your credit report.

If you have charge offs and defaults on previous credit cards, I doubt that you would get a credit card unless you invested some money in it to get it. We do not do credit card applications here. You can surf around the site and see if anyone else had this or a similar question. There is one post on WAMU cards and there seem to be few people using it for rebuilding credit. So search the threads and see what you come up with. goodluck

To start with you can opt for the grocery store cards, gasoline cards. They will atleast help you start with some credit transactions. Keep it low but use it. Charge off drops off in 7 years so need not worry about that.

Hello everyone. My name Clay. I have been a member/moderator over at Debt Consolidation care for about a year and a half. My wife and I have been working really hard at getting our financial house in order. WE are finally at a point where we will be passing from "debt" (i.e collections, etc) to having debt on time, paying off and building savings.

I look forward to participating in the community!
