DIscharged CH 7

I had recent recieved my CH 7 discharge 5-2014 and I have not been seeking credit. I applied for my 1st store CC through JC Penny and was declined. There is a black out period with them of 24 month post BK. I recently ordered my credit reports and have recieved TU and EX. I have disputed inaccurate information including inquiries. I am awaiting my EQ as of now. I had 1 st Premier and Cap 1 which were included in the BK. I am not going to recommend 1st Premier because, the fees are expensive and they cost more and did very litte for me, I will say it may have been my fault (high utilitzation) after the 1st year with monthly balances paid in full. Anyone that can steer me in a positive direction I am all ears. I am not against a store card if it can help me rebuild.

Congrats on being discharged.

Start with this thread. It is long, but read every post in it - and then read it again. The plan works and works well.

If you read that - I would hold of on applying for any new credit until you are certain that all of your credit reports are as accurate as they can be.
