I have a credit score of 623 and would like to start building better credit. Do these cards for fair/poor credit really work to rebuild credit fast? I don’t have a credit card currently.

Сredit repair workеd fine to fix my credit. They disputed and removed lots of bad items from my credit report. I used this service – credit-report-score.10001mb.com
Premier has a credit card that people “for some reason” actually get to rebuild credit.
They charge $240 in fees with a credit limit of $250.
Every 6 months they do a limit inquiry charge and fee you even more.
Not sure why anyone would go for this – please stay away from cards like this.
Google Premier card complaint.
Go to your bank, and ask them about a secured card.
You deposit a certain amount, and each month, you use some of this amount.
Use it wisely and it can turn into a credit card in as little as 6 months.
Don’t pay in full for what you use (replenish funds), and it could take 2 years.
If your bank does not offer this, call around.
About 50% of banks still offer these.
Once this turns into a credit card be sure to never carry a balance or pay interest on your credit card. Paying in full is an easy way to get those 800+ scores.
Credit cards not only destroy your credit ratings when you don’t pay in full, it can devastate lives.
Employers check – don’t dare use credit unwisely.

I have been using the Orchard Bank secured credit card to bump up my credit. I sent them $200 and have a $200 limit on my card. I looked at a buch of different secured credit cards but they all seemed to have outrageous fees attached to them. I have no fees with my Orchard Bank card and it is improving my credit slowly but surely.
yes and no. Most will not raise your scores until you have been rated for timely payments for at least 6 months to 1 year
