My 1st question is: Visa Electron/Discover Card Prepaid in IRELAND? Thanks for any response. 2nd question I got is.. I'm looking into getting a secured Discover card to build up my credit, do you have any suggestions of companies?. |

I would like to know the answer too. Anyone here know what is the answer to that question. I'll do some investigation and get back to you if I discover an answer. You should email the people at Discover Card as they probably can help you..

Also if you can get in to a credit union Then I will also try to get a secured card from them. Mines from NFCU has not AF or monthly fees, Great card..

If you have blank credit file(not bad credit) - try wells fargo. they unsecured me after 11 month and given 5k Discover card without annual fee. After 4 month of that they given CLI to 7500. Nice bank =)..

As someone else said, Amex does NOT have a secured card, however dozens of secured cards listed here:.
Http://creditboards....howtopic=373541. If you have a clean file, I would suggest. Http://creditboards.com/forums/index.php?s...t&p=3900945. NO security DEPOSIT required.. This post has been edited by. Firefighter 161. : 18 October 2009 - 07:26 PM.. |

Just wanted to add my two cents, I used National City and it's a wonderful card. It reports unsecured, only $250 to open and.... it offers a few perks like rental car insurance...

Open search window..
Type in "secured" in box.. On the right, choose "search titles only". Then go over and sort by # of replies.. Http://creditboards.com/forums/index.php?a...lite=%2Bsecured.. |

Well, my credit is far from good..
A few months from my 18th birthday a CD company put me into collections for CDs I never even received. They took that off after several months of disputing it. Then some awful stuff happened within the family and so the two accounts I did have open went negative my bank and Verizon. Verizon is on my credit report last I saw and the bank hasn't gotten there yet and I'm in the process of trying to get that taken care of.. Thin file, and what's there is ugly.. I can honestly say though, not really my fault but I am trying to fix it and up my score... |

+1.
I would try a local CU.. Go to the ones near you and stop by and talk to a loan officer.. Let them know what you want.. I have found serveral goldmines less than two miles away from my house... |

You could start with like 7 pages of negatives like me.. |
