Well, I called Chase's backdoor number. No luck. Smiley Sad They told me that although they did take into consideration my settled account, he said it was other reasons as well that kept me from getting a card from them. He said I can try back when I fix the problems on my repot when it gets here in about 7 days. 

I already have 2 cc's. One from Merrick Bank $0/1400 CL, 8 months old, and the other a Citi Diamond $420/1000 CL, 2 months old. That Citi will be paid off completely at the end of this month. I have to wait til the statement cuts in before I pay it though. That may be another reason Chase denied me. I actually destroyed my Merrick Card a month ago since I don't need it any more but I wanted another card from a major bank to use specifically for gas. When I called Merrick for a replacement since I am already a member and there would be no need for a HP, they told me its a $15 charge to send a new one. No thank you.  I bit the bullet, took the HP, and I apped with BoA, and got approved for their Visa CC with a $500 limit. That'll work lol. Smiley Happy As soon as I get it, I will cancel Merrick and just keep my Citi and BoA cards. I've had about 5 other CC's in the past. All in good standing except for that one Chase card.


Congrats on the BoA card!

Ah dang, if you were going to app for something else, I would have STRONGLY suggested Sallie Mae 5% CB on first $250/month of gas AND groceries.. plus the first $750 of Amazon purchases (bookstores).
Congrats on your new BoA CC! It will grow with you, for sure! Smiley Happy

I don't think you were denied because your account was charged off. You were denied because of your short credit history. Wait until your accounts hit one and you have no balances reporting.

As of 2017, rebuilding...

Oh no, yea I forgot you mentioned that to me. I was so sad and hurt I got denied by Chase that I was only thinking about one other bank and that was boa. And whats sad is that the card I got from them don't offer any rewards. I wonder if I call can they still offer me a rewards card with the same CL without another HP?
