|
|
I was thinking of starting one of those bad credit online bank accounts where you don't need money to open one or they don't do credit checks or have any dealings with Checksystems. Anyways I was wondering if anyone can share the experiences on this?
Here's a site that I found while googling:
"http://www.badcreditnic.com/"

Hello wildstorm_films,
Bad credit online bank accounts are perfect for those who have very bad credit history or have filed bankruptcy. It helps them to improve their credit rapidly. |

not sure what Jonny meant.......bank accounts are not reported to the credit bureaus. ESPECIALLY if they dont even pull your credit to open the account.
There are many millionaires with bad credit because they paid late on their credit cards, mortgages, installment loans, etc

How do you find these wildstorm?
I want to point something out. It was the first thing I noticed besides the low budget look and feel of the site.

They charge $15 for a "link" to a site that gives you the account. Does that sound right to you? If I had to bet, I would put my money on the fact that there isn't any "link" at all and after you pay you just get a link to a bank that for whatever "reason" doesn't offer this "anymore". Hint: because they never offered it in the first place.
Now if any of those "links" are real... What do they give you? A real checkbook you can use anywhere? A checkcard? I don't see any FDIC logo's or any disclaimers at first glance.
Looks no good to me. But as always I will poke around a little more.

After about 6 links I am convinced that there is nothing legitimate about any of the links or companies listed at that site. They are either trying to get $5-15 from you. OR They are just forwarding you application to banks for you. I doubt they actually forward the information.
