My experience with CCs:
Chase - Awful, all CC companies are out to screw you, its true, somehow, but Chase takes it to new levels
Crapital One - No, that IS how it is spelled, trust me
HSBC/Orchard - Great for credit rebuilders, but steep in annual fees, and their cards will never 'grow' with you
Citi - I never cared for them much, but there are people that swear by their Citi cards, so its a toss up
Discover - Always did me right when I had one, unfortunately I don't carry one anymore
GE Money Bank - Really only good for department store/"Mall" store type places. Steep APRs as well, avoid em unless you just want some diversity
Barclays - This is who my big CC is with now, I've never had a single issue with them, and have had automatic-CLIs(Credit Line Increases) every 6 months, like clockwork. Besides, who can deny the look of this card??
(Yes, my CC has William Shatner on the front of it...)
