Does anyone have a list or references about banks (or other similar institutions) that will issue a *secured* VISA or MasterCard? I checked with my local bank (where I've been doing business with no problems for almost 7 years), and although they do offer that, they have a ceiling of $1500 credit limit, regardless of how much you are willing to deposit to secure the account. (ie, it would seem logical to me that if I was willing/able to deposit $4000 into the secured account, then my credit limit would be $4000, but apparently this logic escapes my local bank). I'm preparing to do some consulting work (hopefully), and after airfare, hotel, etc for an extended number of weeks, that $1500 can be eaten up real quick.
