Creditmagic- Congrats on your 3rd card with them. Very nice sl.  By chance, do you know if they are using Fico 9? I know a short while ago, they were using a very old model, I wanna say Fico 2 or 5, something like that.

Just curious. Again well done.

Chances look pretty good that might just be true now but i can update to confirm it for us when the card arrives.

Like you say, before they were using an older model fico version but i've recently read some posts where it seems to have changed over to a newer one.

Congrats on your nice approval!  If I just got the lowest apr on the TRIO about a month ago with my crudtastic EQ score I am sure you most likely will get the best APR as well! as my scores are certainly alot lower than yours.  Great approval!  BTW how long you been with 5/3 for since this is your 3rd card?

That's stated in the first post but in case it slipped you by, since Feb 2014.

Seemed like a logical choice and they did not disappoint.

Approval was Immediate!

Going back to my last genuine approval that was back in January with FNBO, i been firmly in the garden most all of this whole year up to now. INQ's are at bare minimum for a change except for TU who they also just so happened to pull for it, but i suppose the FICO numbers were acceptable enough. Around 765 FICO TU version 8 courtesy Sams Club MC free monthly score. Utility always is constant between 5 to 9% range

Really really hope to see the lowest APR that comes assigned with this new card which is listed as 13%.

Been with them since 2014 so i cannot thank them enough for that too. Very early in my building credit they were the FIRST to approve a high line at the time. Also it makes a (3rd) 5/3 credit card.

Boom!!   This is how we do it

Thank You 12njoy.

Tis now the season to have a good look around from outside the garden for a change.

Thank You donny10.

Yes it is considering the basis approval on previous ones were vastly less.

And by the way, i have the update now on the APR assigned. It is 14.99%.

Much better than the 19% + 18% respectively for the (2) other current cards with them.

That's great! I would apply for that card. I live in Boston, I think I'm out of their area.

If I may ask, what bureau did they pull?

TransUnion FICO. I will know if it was version 8 or 9 when the card comes and will update about this too.

But also there are some other forum members who have shared on their approvals that a pull was EQ.

One thing is certain though i think, they don't use EX at all.

Hope that helps
