Those offers will be for very high interest rates and low credit limit, I bet < $500.

Some do, many do not. Filers are getting the same card offers that 'good credit' folks are getting including 0% card and car loans. Creditors know that they can't file again for another 7 years and change.

Bottom line. Bankruptcy does not carry the same stigma it did in the old days.

RE :”Bottom line. Bankruptcy does not carry the same stigma it did in the old days. “

Back in the 1970s you couldnt get regular credit cards at all without a job and a house. My Grandmother couldnt get one. And now there is little social stigma to anything bad.

But they still will have trouble getting reasonable loans or a good job.
