Wow, to get a  quality card like that immediately after bankruptcy... you are indeed fortunate, and now have a fantastic headstart on rebuilding.

Thats great. My bk7 from 10 years ago was a key denial factor for cli they liked to use during my 1st year with my $500 promise. They must have looked at other key factors in your profile to help with there reconsideration so thats a nice pull. EnjoySmiley Happy

My scores were higher immediately coming out of BKR than most people's, from what I can tell.  My husband and I got secured cards while still in BKR and kept utlization low and made on time payments every month so I'm sure that looked good to PenFed.  After the denial of the Rewards card I apped for the Promise card and reconned via email immediately.  Got the phone call this morning and she approved me.  In addition, she told me I qualify for the ODLOC and went ahead and added it to my checking!!  Even if my CL stays at $1k for a year, I'm ok with that.  I'm just glad to get in with them and have a chance to really start a rebuild.

You might not realize it LilHobbit but that is extremely valuable information you just shared.
