I doubt it.
If you have bad credit, no one will issue you a card with a high limit.
There are a few things you should do to repair your credit.
1. Pay off the debt. I would reccommend settling it for less then you owe if they are in collections. There is a free kit on this website: http://www.expert-credit-advice.com/ that you can you which has free sample debt settlement letters you can download to offer settlements.
2. Dispute the negative items: Use the same free credit repair kit on that website mentioned above to do this. This may take some time but it is highly reccommended because if you dont you will just have to wait, which will be awhile.
3. Build new credit: This is imperative if you ever want to have good credit. Here is an excellent article with a few tips and techniques you can use that willl definately help you: http://www.expert-credit-advice.com/building_credit.htm
Forget about adding all your bad debts to a credit card. Wont work, trust me.
I wish you the best of luck.

There are some very good credit card offers for balance transfers. 0% for a fixed period, then incremental increases.
What are your interest rates on all your debt now? Consolidation really could help if you're only able to pay the minimum on all your debt now.
Not using the new card is probably your most critical decision. The only one who can answer this one is you. And it may take some pretty tough decisions on your part. Just not thinking of it as a "fall back" plan will help.
Good luck...

You need to have a credit card that has a big enough limit on it to hold what your going to transfer on to it. The bad credit will probably show on your credit report then as paid but actually repairing bad credit takes time, it is not that easy.
