And yes, if you can squeak $1000, then it is better. You can control your utilization a little better and you'll likely be approved for higher CLs in the future.</P> Mon, 06 Oct 2008 10:30:15 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Secured-card/m-p/355775#M117489 llecs 2008-10-06T10:30:15Z https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Secured-card/m-p/355824#M117497 Visit - either in person or online - a CU before you muck around with New Millienium Mon, 06 Oct 2008 14:13:30 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/General-Credit-Topics/Secured-card/m-p/355824#M117497 Anonymous 2008-10-06T14:13:30Z
