No problem at all, Scupra. After having to buy a new car a year head of what I planned, I'm not aping for another. I truly don't need any more credit cards.

Yeah, me too.. I know the US Airways will save me money on some upcoming trips, but do i really NEED the 50k bonus miles?

I'm dying to be able to get the Alaska Airlines CC but I think it looks like the 7 year mark for that.....??

I burned BofA as well.  I figured I'm just SOL on that card which is too bad, cause I fly them almost exclusively.

As far as my rebuilding goes.  My scores in my sig are current and I can't seem to get them to budget much at all.  Kind of frustrating actually.  I have 3 inquiries that are supposed to drop after this month so I hope that shows me a little love but I'm not holding my breath.  I don't carry balances on any cards accept for a $200 revolver on my NFCU Flag card.  I'm thinking maybe I need to put the others into circulation and just pay em off immediately to show some use??  700 seems like a lifetime away.  However I do agree - 4 years this fall, wow!

I see about a 3-6 point difference with 2 inquires. My EX is killing me! Everything else seems to be raising towards 700 though.

I'm on the fence with this darn Barclay US Airways card! DW said to go for it to save on a trip to VA at the end of the year, so she isn't making it any better!!!

@Scupra

@Scupra, 

also why haven't you pushed the luv button on your platinum card to match your other card?

Thanks for the help!

Pulled my reports today and they all look correct!

Has anyone had any issues pulling their EX report after filing? 5 days before my 341, I got a 3 bureau report here (I used my annualcreditreport.com in May 2014 when looking for a new apartment). There were some issues with it (one creditor with an open account), so I decided to dispute this weekend. However I can not pull my EX because they're saying I have insufficient credit history over the last 6 months to generate a report or score.

$5,000 approval from Barclay for the US Airways card!!! Thanks everyone, have a great Wednesday!
