So I have been on a roll these past two weeks.....just applied for BofA 123 and got the " we are unable to provide instant decision right now blah blah blah 30 days in writing blah blah blah". I didn't panick, however, thinking that it was a decline. I called one of the recon numbers, and it just happened to be the right number. It turns out the fraud department wanted to verify 15 minutes worth of info from me, and told me I was approved already......for $10k! I almost fainted! The after intro rate was 20.99%, but who carries a balance on a rewards card anyway? Thanks to these forums and the good advice from all of you!

Thanks, thanks! No recent baddies, but from Nov 2008, I had two student loans reporting 60 days late, that is it. Utilization is 24%.
