If you were just approved for the card,  why would they do another HP? Make no sense to me.

Yay! That is awesome congrats! Barclays gave me my first real CL ($2000). They originally gave me $1190 but I recon'ed to $2000. You can use this a springboard to a big boy prime card in 6-months.

Transunion: 707 FICO (4/5/2013) MyFico
Experian: 789 FICO (4/10/12) Lender Pull
Equifax: 706 FICO (8/16/12) MyFico

My cards: Chase United Mileage Plus 7000CL (3/12), CITI Simplicity 1800CL (9/12), Cap1 Platinum 1000CL (2/10), Cap1 Cash back 1500CL (11/11), Apple Barclay's 2250CL (11/11), Discover IT 6000CL (5/13)

It will take me 12 months to re-grow my scores but I am officially a Proud CONDO owner!!!!!
