this is what the picture of my credit looks ive recently been able to eliminate 1 more PFD a medical bill for 100$ leaving only two things left in collections



Way to go OP, great job

 

I would maybe think about getting a store card that is easy to obtain and then garden after that.

 

I would also go ahead and ask NFCU to increase to $1000. The worst that can happen is they say no.

Re: where to go from here?!

Did you have a pre approval when you apped in my offers section? Reason I ask is like you I have a secured card with them and when i went to app over the phone they told me I had to either wait till I had a pre approved offer or just wait till they unsecure my card
