I use CCT. It's $1 to start then if you cancel, they will give you an offer for $14.97/mo for a year. It's worth that to me to keep track of everything. I did pay for MyFico for 1 month. It was nice to see all of the scores and I will probably do it again when I get to 1yr post discharge.


I'm very jealous of you. I see the QS visa and Venture in your signature. You give me hope. I'm 3 months past my discharge. here's hoping I get one or both before my 1 year mark

Is there a thread (recent one) that provides CC companies that are BK friendly?

thanks for all the advice guys. NFCU and USAA want nothing to do with me. I included a card from both of them in my BK. I have started the process of gardening though. Is the 29.95/month worth it to view my FICO 08s or does it matter since I won't be apping for a while?


Yeah, NFCU blacklists for life and USAA for seven years. I think after seven years you may have to call them and ask for full access again, sometimes it is done automatically.

Please don't be jealous. I think we were lucky. All of us in a rebuilding stage have to take it day by day, step by step. Our credit got a bounce after a couple of cards started reporting and we were qualified. Watch your internal score with Cap1. Mine hit just over 670 when I was prequalified with them.

 

Good luck to you.
