Marie, That Equifax information is really shocking. I am really sorry to hear this. As you said, Target must be score driven since they gave me a decent LOC and apr. considering my BK. I hope you get EQ straightened out. Best regards, Jim
the good news is, I get to bust Equifax again. I truly believe they don't care about the bk now... just a score. My score sucks right now. I'm going to get all this corrected and then I'll reapply
I hope this does not sound like sour grapes but I thought more people would have had trouble getting credit cards with a BK and let us know about it. Maybe I should see this in a positive way. You know maybe it is is not that hard to reestablish credit after bankruptcy. By doing a search on the word, I realized that a BK is the kiss of death for Amex and Citibank. But a lot of people seem to have gotten along fine. My BK was in 97. I should have gotten a secured credit union card, FCNB etc. 4 years ago. But I didn't know any better.
