  • Have a look here http://www.fairinvestment.co.uk/bad_credit_rating_credit_card.aspx

  • Vanquis do a credit card that may suit you.You will start with a very low credit limit ie £250.If you pay this off in full every month it will be increased quickly.The other point to be aware of is the huge interest rate charged but if you pay it off in full every month this will not be a issue.The customer service is also very good.If used as tool to rebuild your credit rating it can be very effective.The other option may be a Mastercard from the airline Flybe.They issued me a card with a 5k limit.I have got 3 months to go before my Bankruptcy is removed from my file.;)
