My FICO TU 635

Hello everyone,

I'm starting to rebuild my credit and started from 580 in October and now up to 635. I have a active mortgage never late and auto loan never late but he three charges off and a few close late pmts. I also just got a secure cc with capital one for 49.99 down and a credit one card both balance are below 39%. Was wondering which card would approve me?

76 gas card by GE you have a very good chance.

Chevron good possibility if you don't have 76 near you.

Walmart is first choice because then you get your Fico score monthly too!

PayPal MasterCard but you may end up with a Smart Connect which doesn't have MasterCard.

Re: My FICO TU 635

You may want to look into the Barclay Rewards card (pulls TU only) and a Capital One Quicksilver One (pulls all 3 bureaus).
Check their pre-qual sites for any potential offers too.
As for store cards, GE issued cards -- such as Walmart or Amazon -- are usually attainable with TU scores in same range as yours.

Try the shopping cart trick for a store you want. There is a list of stores that do soft preapprovals on one of the threads here.

Re: My FICO TU 635

How do I get the soft approval from the shopping trick? Also I applied last month for a walmart card but my score was below 580 now its up to 635 after a few clean up items.. Do you think I should apply for a new card at wal mart?

I would apply again.

 

The shopping cart trick is for like Express, Victoria Seceret... you put stuff in your shopping cart of maybe $100 or so and then go check out and when you put in all your info and click continue before reaching payment a screen will pop up that you are approved for credit if you want it enter the last 4 of social and your dob... then you can always cancel out  before buying the stuff in your shopping cart but you get the credit card.... whole thread on it... they are issued by comenity bank.

Re: My FICO TU 635

Does Express pull from TU or all three?
