Approved for Discover and Capital one declined for Chase and Citibank

Had an app spree over the weekend. Chase and Citibank used experian and I have one old unpaid collection for about $300 showing on experianc only - I am trying to settle with the Collection agency for removal. Overall I am happy. My fico scores are all between 700-750 but I don;t have many trade lines. Hate that I have to get minor credit and play this game . I have a debit card and money I have no real need for a credit card. I will buy coffee , a book and gas from time to time and pif . Hopefully citibank and chase will show me some love after I get the Collection removed.

Congrats! The Discover Open Road card is a great card for PIF'ing and collecting some good cash back. 5% back on pay at the pump. Can't beat it.
Here we go again...

Congratulations!

 

Hey, when you get your card you can use "Shop Discover" for Barnes and Noble online and get 10% cash back.  I combine that with my 10% BN membership discount and the regular coupons they send - just have to make sure I spend at least $25 (never a problem) to get free shipping.
