Hi. My wife and I both have terrible credit, and are looking for a credit card with rewards such as cash back or sky miles. We use our visa cards that are tied into our checking accounts so much that it is a waste to not get rewards, but it is hard to get rewards with bad credit. Any advise?

Pull your credit files and clean up you credit, try to figure out where you went wrong and what caused you or lead you to your current credit situation. This will help you avoid the same problem in the future.
