The first thing that pops into my head is a secured card from BOA.  That tends to be a popular card here and it unsecures after 9-12 months.  I would also check into a secured card with a CU.

 

Some other popular ones include:

 

Wells Fargo

National City

Citibank

US Bank

 

I'm not sure if these cards unsecure like the BOA.  Keep us informed on your progress.

Hi, welcome to the forums!

What do you have now? What specifically needs work?
