Well hello there! I'm looking for sub prime credit cards for someone like me (598 Tu, Ex Fico 603(PSCEU), Eq Fico 602).

I currently have an

  1. Orchard
  2. First Premier

I'm already getting 8 secured cards over ther summer, so right now I'm just tyring to expand my unsecured credit base. Thanks!

 

tl;dr: What are unsecured credit careds for subprime credit?


I am big advocate of secured cards to rebuild credit.    I had 3 and now down to 2.

 

However, 8 seems excessive.    What 8 were you planning to get and why?

 

Are the Orchard and FP unsecured?

Re: Subprime Credit Cards

I still don't understand why anyone would open a secured card with $40k. It just doesn't make any sense.
