Applying for a Bankruptcy Credit Card

Posted in Bankruptcy, Credit, Financial, General by quad0028

Whether you just filed for bankruptcy or you just got out of bankruptcy, you need a place to start rebuilding your credit. There is hope for people who have bad credit and are in need of a bankruptcy credit card to reestablish their credit lines. You won’t be able to qualify for a car loan, house loan or boat loan until you rebuild your bad credit rating. Keep in mind, it might take awhile to get back on your feet, but it’s a must if you filed for chapter 11 or chapter 13 bankruptcy

One bad thing about a chapter 13

Posted in Bankruptcy, Credit, Debt, Uncategorized by debtmansteve

Below is listed just one of the very negative aspects of filing for bankruptcy of any form. 

1. Bankruptcy has an extremely negative impact on your credit and becomes a lifetime public record!

A bankruptcy proceeding is one of the most extreme bad remarks that you could have put on your credit report. Thus making any more credit you attempt to get extremely hard, and if you do obtain credit it usually comes accompanied with a seriously elevated interest rate. Additionally, it will stay on your credit report for between 7-10 years. Even when it gets removed from your credit report it remains a public record for the duration of your existence. So whenever you try for new loans at any point in the future, if asked the question whether you have ever gone through a bankruptcy proceeding to avoid breaking the law you must answer yes.

 If possible it would be best to avoid bankruptcy, perhaps look to see if you qualify for a debt settlement program.

How can debt settlement help me?

Posted in Bankruptcy, Credit, Debt, Uncategorized by debtmansteve

Today more than ever people are getting swamped with credit card debt.  With the ruckus from the sub-prime mortgage industry and the addictive nature of credit cards many Americans are falling very deep into debt.  And many fall so deep that they feel the only way out is through bankruptcy.

On alternative to bankruptcy is debt settlement.  With debt settlement you can expect to become debt free within 2-3 years.  And if using a reputable company or law firm to assist you in settling can save anywhere from 40-50% of you overall debt balance.

 Why would anyone want to go this route of debt relief.  Simple the savings of money and time.  Settlement is the fastest way to get out of debt and save money without filing for bankrupcty.  Which is not a very pleasant process to say the least.

John had pretty bad credit until he signed up for a second chance checking account. His local bank utilizes Chexsystems and they told him he messed up his credit pretty bad so he couldn’t sign up for an account. That’s to bad. John really is a good guy and bad things happen to good guys.

Not long after John was told he couldn’t qualify to open a check account with his bad credit, he found a second chance with online banking. Way to go John!

Bad Credit & Second Chance Checking Accounts

Posted in Banking, Bankruptcy, Credit, Finance, Uncategorized by quad0028

If you have terrible credit and need an alternative to traditional checking and business banking accounts, it’s recommended that you sign up for a second chance checking account. Although not everybody has a need for another checking account, many banks will not approve individuals or businesses that have bad credit or have defaulted with previous accounts. Since many banks utilize Chex Systems for managing their clients accounts, if you have been in default, most banks will not approve you. Your best option would be a second chance checking account. All of these second chance bank account options are FDIC insured and there are no credit checks. You don’t have to be scared of not being accepted since all applications are approved each and every time. Best of all, your non Chex Systems bank account will provide you with a routing number, account number and master card within a matter of days. By filing out a free application for your bank account, you’ll receive your package shortly.
