I agree, this is one of their close to sub-prime cards but getsyou in the door with them.

+1 Apple Financing. A lot of the approvals come on recon, so call them up after you apply if it's not an instant approval.

Don't be afraid to ask for a larger limit than anything you currently have. When I apped for mine I told the credit analyst I was planning to buy the latest top of the line Macbook Pro and asked for $5000. They gave me $2000, but considering my highest limit at the time was $500, I considered that a solid win.

So they're pretty generous with credit lines, even if you don't get exactly what you ask for.

She is going to apply and see what happens.

I would say the apple visa but only because of popularity among posters. I don't really know about their criteria.

Honestly, I don't think Barclays underwirting varies wildly from product to product. I would just pick the one you want and go for it.

They seem to be pretty good about recons from what I've read around here as well

She has like 6 baddies. 1 is a 17 k repo from 6 years ago and 5 which total about $550 all together..She really wants the Priceline card but afford of the baddies

creditnocash · ‎07-23-2012

does she need the card now?

id wait until the repo falls off.

and try to pfd or gw those collections. they still hurt after 5+ years but affect it less then they would of if they were brand new.

edit: also does barclays have a preapproval site?
