Amex & Discover Approved! Thank you myfico!

After being depressed for years about the state of my credit, I stumbled across these boards one day and finally decided to face my issues head on. For my 30th birthday this year, I committed to reading everything I could and putting it all to use - today, it finally paid off!

 

Amex PRG (50k bonus) and Discover IT ($7,500 SL) approvals!

 

I can't thank all the wonderful people on here for sharing their life altering advice everyday! This board has completely changed the way I approach money and credit and by next year I hope to be ready for my own home. Thank you all so much!! Smiley Happy

 

Stats for approval:

EX: 691

EQ: 697

TU: 702

 

Only remaining baddie: Paid CO from 2/14

 

Also, for anyone who might be starting out on their credit journey. Please look into Capital One, I'm so grateful as they not only gave me my first card in this rebuild, but CLIed me to 7,500 after just a few months. I'm assuming that's what Discover then used to determine their limit!
