Thanks to the fico family, I have been babe to raise my score from the mid 5s to 670-688 range, and went from 0 cc to a cap 1 and blue nile card. About a week and a half ago, I went on my first spree after receiving a pre qual from chase freedom. Here are the results from spree:

Chase freedom- $3500
Chase Slate- $3200
Discover It- $10000
AMEX Costco True Earning- $5000
Hawaiian Miles WE Master Card- $2000

In addition to those approvals, I also got:

Cap1 cli $2000 to $4500 via luv button
BlueNile cli from $3000 to $14500 via luv button!

I wanted to post the results earlier, but wanted to wait until I received all of my cards! I am so excited about these cards and using them responsibly. The Costco card and Hawaiian Miles card have always been my dream cards, and I never thought that I could have ever got them on my own. Thank you for all of the advice fico family!!! I couldn't have done it without everyone here.

Great run and some fantastic 10K+ Cls there, grats Smiley Happy

Re: Prime app spree!! Amazing results!!

Congratulations! Those are wonderful cards. I'm curious though, why did you go after the Chase Slate? That is a balance transfer card with no real perk or benefits outside of being good for balance transfers?

Re: Prime app spree!! Amazing results!!

I wanted the slate so I could transfer my balance from my Cap1 card since its 0% intro fee was up and I still had around a 1k balance.  I figured that I could use slates 0% interest and 0% transfer fee so that I could pay it off and not have to pay interest.  Since slate has no af I figure I can just sock drawer it, or if I really dont need it, transfer the cl to my freedom and close it.  Either way, I will be using the cards responsibly and rotating them to try to get the most of all of my benefits.
