Snail mail pre-approval. applied. approved. $75 annual fee, but late fees are only up to $25 (better than most other cards). 29% interest, but well worth it to rebuild credit. My pay history was as good as possible prior to the bankruptcy (not many late payments b/c sudden loss of income) ... not sure if they looked at that. Overall, very satisfied with the opportunity to rebuild. Benefits and customer service rating is not accurate. I haven't had the card long enough to rate so gave generic 3 stars.

Credit score of upper 500s to low 600s and was approved for $750 (minimum of $350). Annual fee of $50 with APR of 22.9%. Was sent pre-approval letter in mail. Easy online payment/account access, but can only make 2 ACH/online payments per statement cycle. You can make additional debit card payments with customer service rep for $3.95 each.
Plan to use and pay off each month to improve score, so interest won't be an issue. I figure after about 6 months, I should start seeing increases as I zero out each month.

5 months after discharge from my Chapter 7 bankruptcy, I got a pre-approved mail from Blaze. I applied and got approved for $1000 limit. Annual fee was $50 and the interest rate was like 21% or 22%. I pay in full every month so that does not bother me.
From my research, it looks like I got a decent deal compared to other cards being offered to me.

I have this card for over a year and never had any problems with it. One piece of advice though, it is best to pay your bills via your bank account. I find that if you write a check, they do not apply it in a timely fashion and there is sometimes a hold on your payment for a few days. With bank transfer, it clears within a day.

I started off with an initial credit limit of $350 and also an annual fee of $75. After 6 months, I actually received a mail from blaze that I was pre-approved for a credit line increase. I had to log into my account and went to a tab where I had to update my income and how much I was paying on my mortgage or rent. My income then was $65,000 and I was paying $600 a month on the home. I was approved for a $250 increase. There was a soft pull though in Transunion.

I have this card. Mine came with a $75 annual fee and a $300 limit. I got the card 2 weeks later in the mail and paid off the $75 annual fee immediately (BTW - that charge appears when you get your card). I spend about $20 on the card and pay it off in full every month. They do have a grace period unlike some other sub-prime cards. As far as the card goes, it is better than many others (like First Premier).

I overextended myself during the housing bubble and paid the price after the collapse. My credit score went down and I got rejected by many cards. When I got a pre-approved mail from blaze, I was a little skeptical. But I pulled the trigger nevertheless and was approved. The card arrived in about 2 weeks and they already charge the $75 annual fee.
After doing my research, I was actually glad I was approved for this card. I realized that there are many other cards targeted at folks like me that charge stupid high fees. Makes this card look good.

I got pre-approved mails for both the First Savings and Blaze. I applied and got approved for both ($1,500 limit on both as well). I do not carry any balance so the interest rate does not bother me at all.
After 6 months, my scores have gone up by 60 points.

I got the $19 version with a 22.15% APR. The limit I got was $1,500. This is actually not a bad limit considering that my Credit One only started me with $300 (though I did get a couple of increases).

Got the offer through the mail. I applied and was approved and the card just arrived today. I was given a $1500 limit with a $50 annual fee. I already have a Credit One and Capital One card. 700 is my 6 month target.
