Credit Cards

I would like to apply for a Visa card, but I don't know what kind of Visa. Does the bank make a difference i.e a Bank of America Visa? Rewards Bank of America Visa?

Any recommendations or information?

Thanks!

Citibank and MBNA are generally the 2 best bets.

I work at HSBC, and the credit cards are just mastercards. Just look for the one that offers you the best rate and such.

shop around with the major cc banks, chase, bankone, citicards, boa, mbna, etc and see which has a rewards program that fits what you need

I believe somewhere on MSN Money or some similar website, there's a list comparing the APRs of various different cards. I've got a Chase Visa that offers a 7.9% minimum A.P.R., that's probably about the best you could get without an annual fee.

citi dividend platinum select card looks pretty sweet. my friend has one, no fee and you get 5% cashback at grocery stores and gas stations, 1% on other purchases.
