Putting money with NFCU helps. Putting a direct deposit helps even more.
But, there are many who had 620-660 scores who were approved for unsecured CC....some even for 2 (Visa and MC).
NFCU is about as good as it gets for a creditor who will work with you. PSECU is another, if you can qualify.
I have 5 open TL's all in good standing. I have a few derogs that will age off next year. I may just wait to be on the safe side. I still plan on making them my 2nd bank. I like to have one bank local, just in case. Direct deposit will be my next move.
