Hello Forum,
What are some good secured credit cards for rebuilding? I already have two store cards, JCP and Belk and one visa card with my local credit union.

I just got a Cap1 Secured, they gave my $200 limit for $49 (with high 500 scores) and I immediately added $100 to get $300 limit. I plan on increasing mine gradually to $1k over next year and then apping for a Barclays or something similar.
Depending on how long you have had your current cards, you may want to get 5-6mos of history with those too.
Applied Bank : secured :start $200 Limit NOW $5000 Limit
Capital One : secured :$200 Limit Now $3000 Limit
How did you get those limits so high? Do you ask them for an increase or do you just send them more money??
That's pretty sweet.
I don't think you need a secured card actually. You already have a non-secured bank card don't you?
