Well how bad is bad? If anything you can start by getting a secured card from a national bank. Start with a 500 dollar limit. Pay on time, and they should make it into a unsecured card and maybe add to the credit limit. From their you need to get some kind on a loan whether a personnel loan or a car loan. Pay that on time, and you should see your score go up. Their are a thousand ways to do it it depends on your situation.
