Re: Credit Spree Damage Report

Nice CL on the BOA.

Have your scores dropped yet?

BTW, who did NewEgg pull? I think DH would be interested in the FREE Rush Processing for orders. Or at least I am since he pays the extra $ for Rush Processing. Grr..

please be careful with that new Amex!  I saw your plan to BT to a brand new Amex card and pay it off by next year, and it made my heart jump into my throat a little.
 

I have a 0% APR on purchases for a year on my new AMEX and I will be PIFfing every month.  I got the card to establish a long relationship with them for future travel esp, not to take advantage of the new card offers.
 
I am thinking very long term here!!!

Re: Credit Spree Damage Report

I'm cross-eyed and didn't have any coffee yet, but did OP spend over $14k on CCs alone in less than a month?
 
If OP Pays in full next month, I'd wager a 25-40 point drop over the next 2-3 months due to the new credit, with a full recovery come late summer. If OP doesn't PIF next month, I'd wager a 80-100 point drop by Apr. 1.

BTW, thanks OP for sharing. It's scenarios like this that keep us junkies going.
