Secured bank loan

So I went to my credit union today and asked about a secure loan to help repair my credit.

I was told if i had anything in collections i would not be approved.

does this sound right to any of you?

I was able to get a secured installment loan and a secured credit card from one credit union [Vystar] when another [First Community] rejected me. I recommend that you try another lender.
