First credit spree results.

Well after getting a little advise from the forum and finally deciding on cards to app for here are the results.

 

1st-Chase Freedom-instantly approved $2200.00

2nd-Discover it-instantly approved $5500.00

3rd-Sallie Mae MC-app being reviewed,no more than 30 day message.

 

Im really excited with the credit that ive gotten since these are my first unsecured credit cards.should i call in on the sallie mae card tomorrow when there open to see if i can get an approval with out waiting?If so any suggestions how i should approach it, would be my first time ever calling in for any credit.Im going to be joining the garden club now. Again thanks for all the help and any advise.

 

Ive only had 1 secured card of $400.00 for a year and some installment loans,heres a link to my very first thread on here with my full credit history.

Congrats on the approvals and good luck on the pending app

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Whether you get the Sallie Mae or not, the other two are nice cards and nice starting limits!

Congratulations! $5,500 is a nice initial limit, especially for a Discover card.
