Can I Get a Credit Card if I Have Bad Credit or Poor Credit
posted January 4, 2008 - 7:50pmIf you have bad credit or if you have less than perfect credit, then it will be much more difficult for you to qualify for a major credit card. Living without a credit card is almost unthinkable however, so rest assured there are banks out there that will now approve your application - particularly if you ask nicely and you are persistent.
First, remember that you're not alone. There are countless people just like you with credit blemishes or outright bad credit. Even though there have always been lenders willing to lend at high rates, the good news is that more and more banks are becoming willing to extend credit to individuals at reasonable rates. There are even banks who will open credit card accounts for you if you are just out of bankruptcy, foreclosure, or other severe credit problems. It's clear that many people have credit problems, and banks know that individuals with bad credit are part of an ever growing market for them.
Before you apply for a new credit card, just be sure to compare the terms, rates and fees charged by each bank or lender. Just because you have bad credit does not mean you have to settle for high fees and unreasonable costs! You can still shop around for a good deal.
