Hilton AMEX Approval!!

I have been reading the forum for about a year and have made a few posts, but none as exciting as this one.  I travel a lot and need a credit card that will give some rewards.  So tonight I decided it was time to upgrade from Cap 1, BBVA and the secure card I have.  I applied with Hilton and was instantly approved for 10K!!!  My scores are on the rise, but didn't know if they were good enough.  Thanks to the forum I am now a prime card holder.

 

 

 

 

FICO 688 (AMEX), TU 682 (MyFico)

BBVA Secured $5000, BBVA Clear Points $1000, CAP 1 -$1200, GE Discount Tire $700

 

Goal all scores 720, started with 545 in 2010.
