This card charges steep fees just to open and maintain an account. The credit limit is low, making it hard to use for real expenses. Interest rate are high, so carrying a balance is expensive. Overall, it feels more like a burden than a helpful credit option
I have had my TOTAL VISA card for 10 years with a beginning credit limit of $250. I have never been late on a payment in all that time and I have almost always paid over the minimum payment due. I have asked numerous times for a credit increase and have been denied. I got another credit card at the same time (also a secured card) and they have increased my credit by over $600.
