How soon after bankruptcy can obtain a credit card?
I am going through bankruptcy right now and I have curiosity about how after my debt is discharged I can get a secured credit card. I think not face more debt, but I know if I want to rebuild my credit score a secured card with money in a savings account is a good way to do this. Problem is that I have been investigating the letters and what I found is not eligible until 18 months after the crash. Which means I would have to start building a savings account. For anyone who has been through bankruptcy is this normal?
My husband went through Chapter 13 bankruptcy prior to the marriage and was still in when he received a credit card offer, had not yet be released, but was able to get a card. interest rate will be super high, his was 23.98%, and the credit limit was only $ 500. be careful, because although the card will be able to get to first is the rate charged fees like crazy
