American Express B C P Instant Approval!!!!

So, I just found a signup bonus offer for the Blue Cash Preferred and couldn't help myself - I app'ed a few minutes ago.  Instant approval!  I forgot where the link is to check for APR/CL is, but I'm just excited to learn that I got the card!  I initially wanted to wait 2 weeks for some payments to post on my cards (at 36% Util), but when I saw the extra signup bonus I had to jump for it!

 

I don't have my true FICO scores, but my FAKO from CK is 754, and 765 from CS.  No baddies, 22 yrs old with 3 yrs 0 months AAoA (before apping).  PLUS, this gets backdated from my PRG in June Smiley Happy

 

Thanks again to everyone on this forum!  Now my dress shopping can be done a few weeks early Smiley Very Happy

 

 

 

EDIT:  Just called the backdoor number on this thread - was approved for $2k, which is kind of low, BUT, at 12.99%, which is the best APR they offer for the card!  Very happy with this, as it's much easier to get a CLI than it is to get an APR reduction!

 

800+ across all three (via FAKOs) has been achieved! Current goal - Get down to 6 cards in total - sitting with 8 currently.

Haha that's exactly why I went ahead and app'ed.. I already spend enough in the bonus categories to justify the AF, but it still feels good to know that it's basically covered for the next 3 years for me Smiley Happy
