Thanks, Lexie. I picked the Rewards Platinum Visa instead of Platinum Visa. I don't plan to carry any balance. I got it for the fee EQ FICO score.

Yeah that's the only thing I hate about how DCU does their credit cards (can't knock em for it though), hahaha choose the Platinum Visa lower apr, choose the rewards platinum visa and get a higher apr no matter what your score is! Might be lower, then most people who don't have excellent credit, but I don't mind the APR since their so upfront about it, and give you the catch before you pick which card you want! (So you can pick a card that better suits your needs) But since you won't be carrying a balance it really doesn't matter Smiley Wink

Congrats on the limit though, hahahaa I hope I get their soon! But I don't spend that much on that card so I know it won't be anytime soon since they have direct access to what I make every 2 weeks and I don't have justification to get more! Smiley Very Happy -LJ

Re: WoW!!!! Just got approved for DCU Platinum Visa!!!!!

I had around 15+ inquiries when I got approved for the CC and refi. I did it on the phone though, not online. I was shocked. But I had just cleaned up my report pretty well.

 

I also had a ton of new cards and very low AAoA, 1 CO and 1 collection at the time. I think it was just my lucky day Smiley Very Happy
