Hey folks, I currently have a shocking credit score (High 300s) for some bad judgement calls I made in my teens. I have just turned 21 and looking to rectify my wrong doings now however no credit card companies will touch me (Rightly so) I've even defaulted on Vanquish so I can't use them either.

 

I was looking at prepaid cards the ones that promote credit rebuilding as they report back to the credit agencies, I was wondering 1. Will these really work 2. Would it be beneficial to take more than one out (Will two double the effect etc..)? I understand there is a monthly cost but if the benefits are there to be had I can easily justify taking out two or three of these to help repair my report.

 

Thanks!

IMHO, no, this wont help.

 

Do some research on the prepaid credit cards before signing up to one of those as well.
