(someone) Correct me if I'm wrong, but a credit report will NOT show whether a CREDIT CARD account is secured or unsecured. On the otherhand, INSTALLMENT loans are another story...per this recent thread... http://consumers.creditnet.com/straighttalk/board/showthread.php?s=&pgnum=2&postid=184771#post184771
I use to have a secured providian and it show up as a secure card on my credit reports... BOFA and Wells both offer secure cards that report them as regular credit cards
How can you tell if it showing up as secured? I havea providian and there is no notation next to it on my credit report.
