I was able to get a lower CL Best Buy card with scores a little lower than yours, 100 late payments on loans, and no open/current accounts. Try this pre-approval link and see if you get offered something. I also think they are BK friendly.

hey jaystay, thanks for the info, was prequalified for $100, however applications is still in review.

Good luck getting a CLI. If you got a credit rebuilder card with HSBC, they will never give you one. HSBC, from what I understand, will entertain the request if it's not a rebuilder product. I had their $500 Mastercard for a year and I believe I got hit with a $59 A/F. They then wanted to not give me a CLI nor a A/F waiver. Since by this time I had a $2K card plus a Hooters and Barclays card (Hooters was fired), I fired HSBC. All of my cards have no A/F and pretty decent limits.
My advice to anyone in the FP, low limit CC club is to save at least $1K ($2K if possible) and dump that in a secured credit card. Also work on getting rid of all your "inaccurate" derogatories through the dispute process. I did the low CC game, and it was just bad. I now have close to $27K in available credit, $14K of which is bank card credit.
Low Limits Begets Low Limits. High Limits Begets High Limits.
