No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I don't think that I am eligible for USAA because I am just a contractor that supports the warfighters.
Other than NAVY FCU what other prime Cards or CU are good to have? (Capital One, Discover, Amex, ect...)
Also is it advisable to get s store card to help a MIX of credit?
Thank you everyone for helping me.
Hi ChuckTexas,
I am new to myfico and I would like to know how you fixed your credit. I am starting to read everything on this site and apply it. This is as best as I can. I have to be honest in that I m not familiar with any of the reports besides EQ. After you pulled your reports and disputed some information what did you do next? I am willing to do the work but I am just not sure what everyone is doing.
Thanks!

Hi tullz85,
Thanks for your help. I signed up for ScoreWatch from Equifax 10 months ago. I have been taking the recommendations from the site but I stumbled upon this site and realized I should be looking at my other credit reports. I just ordered my report from Transunion which was a mess. I have some cleaning up to do. I attempted to order my report from Experian but I am not able to order them online for free. I had a user name years ago and because I did not remember it I am locked out of the online site.. I have to mail in a request to get a report. I filed Ch7 and it was dismissed in July of 2008. I havent recently opened CC accounts with Cap 1 and Orchard to rebuild. I have a secured card from my CU a month after discharge. I owe 65 of $1500. I also have an auto loan of $8K as of Dec 08.

Hi Chuck_texas,
I have two of my credit reports. I have one more to pull. Thanks for your help. I am not too concerned with people knowing how bad my credit is I don't have any local banks but thanks for the advice. I am going to check out the forums. I wonder if I can have someone review my report. I am recently coming back from bankruptcy which is a public record but before that I really didn't look at my credit report.
