Question
Is a secured loan a good methods to rebuilding credit? I'm skeptical about this because I don't really see the "loan" when I'm giving $500 to the bank, then they hold it, give me $500 and I repay the amount over 12 months for about $43/month. If it helps me rebuild my credit, then I'm all for it! But does it really?

it's considered credit and will end up on your credit report as a line of credit. if you make your payments on time each month, that will be reflected on your statement.

It most definitely can help you rebuild credit as long as it is reported to the credit bureau.

Just take credit and pay it in time, and your credit score will be growing. To avoid common mistakes while buiding credit, I recommend this one - http://freecreditreport.deep-ice.com - to monitor changes in you score and pre-estimate future scores for different scenarios of payments.
