HOLY MOLY, I AM OVER THE MOON RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!

I just applied for a Capital One Quicksilver. I have a Platinum that was upgraded to a QS already which was just raised to $3800 from my Credit Steps CLI. I thought I'd see what the prequal said and they approved me for a QS at 7% less than what I have, 9 months interest free, and $100 bonus if I spend $500 in 3 months. I debated a little about it, but decided I could combine the two later and keep building on it. Keep in mind I was discharged from Chapter 7 BK on 10/6/16. I filled it in, pushed the button and after a dramatic pause due to a slow internet connection today...... was APPROVED FOR $10,000!!!!! I cannot even believe it. I stared at the screen for the longest time expecting it to say, "OOPS, sorry, we goofed" but IT'S REAL!!!!!!

I am soooo having a beer on the deck and reveling in my upward credit journey! Smiley Happy

In March my scores were:   EQ 702 TU 676 EX 673   I cancelled myFICO subscription so I don't know where I am today, but CK and CS were up a few points this month so I'm guessing I had some gains in my FICO scores too. My card started at $3000, I requested a CLI around 3 or 4 months and got $300 and my Credit Steps increase was the $500 they promised ($3800 total). I was a little bummed it wasn't more because Ive read it can be better than what they quote. Today more than makes up for it though!

Wisely! Smiley Wink  I am going to roll the other one into it and use it for my bills, groceries, etc. With this limit, I don't have to worry about utilization anymore which is a relief! It gets so tiring babysitting these cards, checking dates, and making multiple payments.
