Turned down for a 300 dollar secured card?  What did they think you were going to do - run away to Mexico on that?  Sheesh! Smiley Mad

In my opinion Orchard is very easy to get.

Might want to try that one.

It was with Wells Fargo and I have a checking account with them too!  It's messed up.

Re: Turned down for Secured CC

I just recently applied for a BofA $300 secured. With a savings of over 3k, I wouldn't think they would turn me down, but I haven't heard anything yet and I applied yesterday. :-(

I considered BK, but decided to work through all my 23 collection accounts myself.  My fico scores are Eq-476-which just went up yesterday 21 points, Tu-554, Ex-529, I don't know why but once I get my letter in the mail I'm goint to contact them.
