This is not really a question for rewards card area...

This is more a question for the credit cards area.

To answer your question If you declared bankruptcy, you normally would have to declare all of your credit cards... so... by definition, you shouldn't have any credit open right now.

The question I've got is... are you discharged from bankruptcy? If so, you can get a secured credit card. We have them here... HomeTrust Secured Visa, and Capital One.. the credit lines are going to be between $300 & $10,000

If you're just in the midst of bankruptcy right now, you're probably not going to get a bigger line of credit, and you're probably not going to get any rewards or cash back. Your credit isn't good enough.

The secured credit card will be your best bet for job related expenses.

Hi, I would just like to ask how I can get a bigger credit line for my card?

I filed bankruptcy last year, cancelled all my card except for my MBNA credit card. I've so far handled all my finances and everything's going well. But I got a new job and they require us to get a credit card for job-related expenses we might incur to be reimbursed later by the company. I wonder how it will work? Will I be able to get a new credit card with a bigger credit line for work-related purposes?

I'm thinking of travelling to Ft McMurray to see my sister.
I'm going to use my MBNA Platinum Plus Travel Rewards master card.

I've got enough points to fly there.. I'm not sure how much the taxes and fees will be ...

I need 15,000 points to fly to the next province.. so Saskatchewan to Alberta.
