Mini App Spree Win...

I've been lurking around for awhile and studied carefully.  Waited for my scores to jump a bit and today paid MyFico for all the scores and bureaus. To my surprise (pay for TU Quarterly Score Watch to get this for $4.95, btw), my TU score was way higher than I thought (649).

 

So I went app-ing:

 

CapitalOne CLA: from $450 to $1,000

Barclays Rewards: $2,000

Amazon(GE Store): $900

 

Whew! Not going to push it now (unless someone has suggestions).

Scores: EX617, TU649, EQ594 (and I can't figure out why EQ is so low)

 

Back to the garden for a few months.

 

Thank you all for sharing your experiences to help all of us.

Speaking from experience, be careful adding a lot more if you value Barclays, as I've just been let back in to their good graces after a thirteen year ban.

 

*edit: use the search bar and "Barclay AA," and you'll see what I'm referring to.

Re: Mini App Spree Win...

Triple congrats!

 

EQ is the lowest score for me and some others.  Don't sweat it.
