Gosh darn it! I was looking for a happy ending to this saga ... sorry.
sorry to hear that, I was hoping that you'd get in.
Sorry to hear of your denails guys.. It sucks i know.. At least you have a solid answer.. others are still in limbo!! aka myself
Boo at least you got an answer, I'm still waiting for an answer
Well after seeing 9 of my inq's dropped off on TU today, thus leaving only 1, I went ahead and app'ed for the Premier and got the 7-15 day message. Normally I'd feel somewhat good about that however after reading in here, not so much. The wait begins.
I think its odd that I was denied because of my old BK. Look at the other cards I have. Anyway, non of my old BK accounts are on my reports. I actually got those all removed years ago. I think that is why my score was so low for a long time. All my history was gone.

Your BK hasn't aged enough for their comfort level regardless if other lenders may have approved you as you have rebuilt. Each lender has their own UW criteria.

Great point. I know USBank stated a BK must be discharged 5 years before they will not use it against someone.
