Re: another cc needed

I feel you with the Credit One.  How long have you had it for?

What cards do you currently have? And what does your credit report look like, if you don't mind me asking; such as baddies, utilization etc.

Do you know why that it keeps saying that?  With Credit One I pay it right away because I know waiting the week before with them (when payment is due)  isn't a good idea.  Have you thought about a secured card?  I would recommend the NFL Barclays cause I know they are a little lenient but they like to see payment history (I was approved with a TU score of 608).

Hmmm. Perhaps a Discover It card, or a basic Capital One card. I had those two cards when my scores were in the mid 600's when I started building my credit. But if I were you, I would get a bit of payment history with Credit One. And try really hard to pay on time so your scores go up. And if possible, pay in full Smiley Happy
