My advice, and I'm sure other would agree, is to wait until your discharge to apply. I checked Cap1's prequal after my meeting like you did and got nothing. Was nothing up until today when it showed me a preapproval for the Plat. I got it with a $500 SL and since Cap1 uses the same HP if you apply the same day, I tried for QS1 but was denied. Going to try and recon that and see what they say since I'm a month from my discharge date. My point being, give it some time because your BK isn't quite yet final until you get that discharge letter. Once you get that, make a plan on what cards you want to try for. Since you have an approval for the Credit1, use that wisely once it finally comes and build your history well with that while you dispute and update your CRs. That usually takes about 2 months from discharge. YMMV though depending on how much needs to be updated on each. Always remember, this is a marathon and not a sprint. Never be afraid to ask questions. Everything I have learned about credit was because I or another person asked it on here. This is a great community that help out everyone who seeks to better their financial future.
i have 4 credits cards still open and no balances on them .
i am planing to start using them instead of applying for more
i have Nordstorm card 500$
firstone card 1000$
Bush card 1000$
Key jewlery 1000$
they are open since 2014 and i have no balance on them so BK did not burn them and it looks like they are surviving . i just called Nordstorm credit and request a new card even i burned Target card which same bank of Nordstorm (TD bank).
i opened aan auto loan also same day of 341 meeting i have approval for auto loan with credit union with rate 2.2.
Honestly, I wouldn't consider any of them "survived" at this point. You are only a week out of your 341 meeting, with a month and a half to go before discharge. They probably just haven't figured out that you've filed yet. I would wait until 2-3 months after discharge.
Agree with all the responses...
I wouldn't be applying for any credit until discharged... and tacking on multiple inquiries to your report so soon after BK isn't going to make you look good at all.
As for the cards that have yet to be closed... I'd keep on eye on them because they most likely will be once the creditor gets word of the BK filing.
