Bad Credit Cards

Many people are under the impression that if they have a bad credit history, obtaining another credit card is next to impossible. This is very wrong. There are many options available for individuals with less than perfect credit ratings. The first and most obvious would be obtaining a Secured Credit Card (SCC) whereby the individual simply makes a deposit with the credit card Agency equal or less than the credit limit of the credit card. This negates any risk on the credit card agency behalf as there already is the initial deposit that they can draw on assuming the individual can't settle their monthly dues.

The trick is that with this Secured Credit Card arrangement it is almost impossible to default as you are basically drawing on your own money thus isn’t exactly a real credit arrangement. It is however reflected in your credit report that it is a true blue credit card and thus will improve your credit score the longer you use the card.
