Beware of Credit Offers Aimed at Recent Bankruptcy Filers
Avoid High Cost Predatory Lenders
Don’t assume that because you filed bankruptcy you will have to get credit on the worst terms. If you can’t get credit on decent terms right after bankruptcy, it may be better to wait. Most lenders will not hold the bankruptcy against you if after a few years you can show that you have avoided problems and can manage your debts.
