A limit of 700 only.



Cheddar was referring to your scores, you'll get a good limit w/ scores in the low 700s.
 
Your CS scores aren't too far from mine: 708, 709 and 696 - my real ficos are 672. 674 and 653 -- perhaps that helps w/ translating.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
From 700 in 2008 to 498 in 2012...
4/23/12 -- BK 13 date of filing EQ = 505
4/18/12 -- EQ 498
12/5/13 -- EQ 669
Here we go.... back on track.

No, no, I menat with scores in the low 700s you can get a decent Cap1 card, but not the best they have, which are the only ones worth having.

LOL!
 
Well, I saw that post before I saw yours, so I responded before I read the rest of the thread.

What about chase or citibank cards?
 


Chase and Citibank might be doable if you don't have baddies, but they don't really fit your criteria above.  Their rewards typically expire and they're not usually unlimited.
 
I think the only issuer that does the extended warranty thing is Amex, with the exception of Visa Signature cards and World MC cards, but I don't think you have the scores for those.
 
Still thinking....

Re: Which Card?

Go read Bank of America's description of its WorldPoints program. These cards do report.

They probably aren't perfect, but they're pretty flexible, and BofA tends to be generous if you don't get on their bad side. HTH

Good suggestion, HTSU!  I don't know why I never think of BofA.

Re: Which Card?

I am not very comfortable with BOA I think they just dont like me. I mean how stupid is this they deneied me for a secured card in 2002 and the reason was because I have no credit. In 2006 they sent me a mail offer and I applied and denied again. So I hate BOA and will never do business with them.
