Can I get an unsecured credit card or a department store card with my credit?

My credit score from all 3 credit bureaus are in the 500’s. Can I get unsecured card? I’ve tried First premiere and Capital One.

StumbleUpon It!

    You are consider high risk, get a co-signer,maybe someone to piggyback with on a good standing credit card. Don’t pay Capital One or Premiere, they take advantage of the weak.

    Probably not.

    Not very likely
    when you are denied they have to tell you why
    use the reasons to build up your score

    If you do get credit, it is going to be at a horrible interest rate
    so it might not be worth it at this point

    The credit score is a scam. It’s run by the credit card companies who tell you that the only way to get a higher score is to take on debt. Why do that? Pay cash for everything and save as much money as you can. If you really need plastic in your wallet, get a debit card. It can do everything a credit card can do except land you in more debt.
