Recon Update #5

Last two cards arrived.

Santander Ultimate Cash Rewards MC. 2000 SL.
Target RedCard. 500 SL.

Total CL: 19550

BOA Cash rewards 321 will wait until July when my file will have better chance of qualifying for the unsecured card and 150 bonus.

Plan then will be to apply every 4 months for a cash bonus card with 150/500/90 days or similar.

Meet the spend, get bonus, repeat.

Daily cards are Chase Freedom, Walmart grocery the quarter, and BCE for 2% gasoline rewards.

Rest are in the sock drawer except for one small charge each statement cycle and PIF.

Current utilization is 2.5%

Spree complete, all cards in hand, gardening until July 1st.

All cards have a small, $15, charge on each

I will let them all report these balances to CRA on 1st statement, then pif all to zero, then all will report 0 on 2nd statement except one at 1.99% total util.
