How can I get a credit card with rewards when I have bad credit?

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?

Investment banking out of University of California Santa Barbara?

I am planning on going to UCSB this fall and I was admitted with a Pre-Economics/Mathematics major. I want to end up working as an investment banker. Is it likely that a student from UCSB can land an investment banking job after college? Is it bad to go to UCSB if I want to do investment banking?

How does closed credit card by the bank affect my credit history?

hop2seeu pyta:
How does closed credit card by the bank affect my credit history?

My account was closed by the bank due to number of credit cards I have and high balance. I will be able to close all in 6 months. Can other banks close my credit card accounts as well? What is the best way to handle it?
Thanks for the answers but my problem is:

I have one card which was closed by the bank and limit on one other were reduced. I am afraid that this will create a “domino effect” and all other banks will start to close my accounts. How possible is this? Another question is: how bad will the effect of a closed account by the creditor will be on my credit history?

Thanks guys for your answers

How can I change my payment options from credit card to pre paid on Xbox Live?

SLipknOT FTW pyta:
How can I change my payment options from credit card to pre paid on Xbox Live?

Now I’m gonna be taking my credit card information off of my account. I want to change this to a pre paid card. What I want to know is if it’s required to have any credit cards associated with your account. Example: Take all credit card information off of account. Switch to pre paid card. Does this work? Also, will I still have my achievements and stats and friends?
