Looking to get some good benefits as well. Debating between Virgin America VISA (for airline miles) and Wells Fargo as well. Help!

  1. My husband has a similar score and got a Discover card with decent interest rate, but only a $2000 limit. Once his score got a little higher, up went his limit. Anyways, I have a discover too and I love it. We both got them when we were in college, so we got the Student Discover card. They also offer cash back on certain purchases throughout the year. I earn about $60 a year...which is nice.
  2. American Express cards
  3. a 642 score will NOT get you a low interest rate - probably 18-22% if you're lucky to get approved at all
