Company Credit Card - HSBC

Hi All

I go away quite a lot with work and they suggested I request a company credit card (We use HSBC)

I dont have the perfect credit history (I have only just managed to get my own 1st credit card)

Do you still get credit checked for company cards as it is in my name and I get the bills (It is just they pay the bill for me)

Probably a stupid question but I would hate to be declined for a company card lol

    I have a HSBC corporate card via the company i work for.
    AFAIK there is no credit check done on you for one of these cards, it certainly does not appear on my credit file.
    You should be fine as everyone in the same job as me gets one of these cards, and there must be some with out good credit records.
