Answer Paying a credit-card weekly or bi-weekly will not help your credit. The main advantages for doing something like this are to pay lower interest on a carried balance and to force yourself into an extra payment. Example: If you pay half of your monthly bill every 14 days, by the end of the year you will have made 26 payments - the equivalent of 13 monthly payments or one more than the 12 you would have made by sticking to the traditional bill schedule. (This is the same reason that making biweekly mortgage payments cuts a 30-year mortgage down to a 23-year mortgage.) To improve your credit via your credit card, the items to focus on are paying on time and maintaining a reasonable credit utilization rate.

Can you buy a new car with a 510 credit score?

YES - you can. Your first option should be some dealer that offers "BUY HERE-PAY HERE" deals on good used cars. There's alot of them around and they will usually allow you to pay on your payday (weekly or bi-weekly). You're going to be paying a much higher interest rate but that goes along with allowing your credit score to get so low. Second option is a new car with a co-signer with a better credit rating than yourself. Good Luck.

You should direct this question to your state unemployment office.
