Help please

Hi

I should be hopefully discharged from my bankruptcy in a few days, my question is how easy would it be to get a credit card and who should I go with? Any help would be good. Thank you

  • Seems to be if you wait a month or two you can get a Vanquis or Cap One card with a £250 limit at 39% interest. Though if you pay it off each month straight away there is no interest

    When I setup my Co-Op cash minder account, they did say they did a credit card for people trying to rebuild their credit history - might be worth contacting them, especially if you are already a customer.

    I couldn't trust myself with another credit card - I will be staying well clear:o

    Thank for your help on this. It's hard to have that control but have learnt a good lesson and just need a credit card to help out now and then.
