Locate financial institutions with bad credit credit cards. Those may be secured cards. With a secured card, you place a deposit with the credit card company that, in most cases, becomes your borrowing limit. If you fail to repay your loans, you lose the deposit. Cards with low credit lines -- usually $300 to $500 -- also may be available to people with low credit scores.

The interest rates are high with bad credit cards, but be sure that when you charge items you pay off the balance every month. Remember you are trying to reestablishing good credit, and paying debts on time is the fastest way to do that.

After a few months of paying on time with one bad credit credit card, seek at least one other one. Pay the balance to establish good terms. It takes several months of a solid payment history to cause your credit rating to rebound significantly.
