Evening all, I was made bankrupt back in Jan 2008, discharged in Jan 2009 and finished payments in Jan 2012.
I now need to get a credit card for expenses for my work and am wondering which would be best. I'm fortunate and have a good monthly income but have a suspicion that will pale into insignificance compared to my credit history.
Can I get some recommendations please as to which companies/cards I should be looking at as I don't want to start making applications only for them to be declined and therefore having a more -ve impact on my credit file.
Thanks, Allinone.

First of all, congratulations on completing the payment plan. I would recommend the Capital One Secured Card, depending on how much of a risk you are, you would be required to pay either £49 or £200. Worth a look.
