Rebuilding my credit through credit cards

[Anonymous]

I need to know what kind of credit card can a person with bad credit, like myself (565), get to help build my credit score

[Creditaddict]

Household Bank

Hooters

Capital One

Secured Cards like National City, maybe BofA

Macys

I tried for a BofAm on friday and was denied and did not get a counter offer and I am just over 600.  They pull Experian.

Before apping for any more CCs, I'd focus on repair first.

I agree with llecs.

definitely spend more time in trying to repair your report.

However i do understand many who state they would like to dilute the bad with some good tradelines.

I would definitely advise you to get a BofA secured card. This will uncsecure in 9-12 months and grow with you. 

Also get a Macy's store card. This will help with your credit mix thus earning you some more fico points hopefully.

But please work on cleaning your report.

Hope this helps and keep us updated
