Search for "shopping cart trick" and see if you can get a comenity backed store card that way (soft pull pre-approvals so not inquiry). When I was in the mid-high 500's I was approved my Victorias Secret store card by the shopping cart trick. There are a bunch of stores this works with, just dont go to crazy with it. Pick 1 or 2 stores that you really shop at and go from there. Before doing this though I would definitely check with you local credit unions. Good Luck!! Also check Capital One pre-qual site to see if u are pre qualified for any of their cards. I also got my Capital one quicksilverOne when I was in the mid to high 500's. The capital one platinum and quicksilverOne are the 2 cards that are the easiest to get approved for with Capital one (besides their secured) if u ever do apply with capital one and you get denied always recon with their EO office. (You can search for the email) their EO office is awesome and will help you in anyway they can. I was originally denied for my quicksilverOne but then I contacted the EO office and was approved. Just dont give up and good luck.
