I said I was gardening but...... (PRG APPROVED)

[MissCredit9]

I intended on waiting until March to round out my collection with an AMEX, but after becoming more fully informed about the benefit of apping in January (since I was added last year as AU on DH's BCP), I decided to go for the gold (PRG that is). I was approved in the wee hours of the morning. Overall utilization was pretty low but was Experian was showing about 50% utilization on my CSP and 10% on Barclay's. Both balances are paid now but not yet reporting. Experian score was 734. No baddies

Congrats on your PRG approval!

Thanks FinStar! This is off topic but I never saw a hard pull for that CLI i got from Barclay's luv button, unless they pulled Equifax.

Well, it sounds like that worked out in your favor MissCredit9!  If it never showed up on TU, then I think you escaped the HP for sure.  I normally check all three just to be sure (but that's just me to cover all bases).

Do you know any site that I can see my Equifax report for free? I really doubt they pulled Equifax but you never know.......
