Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

Isanham, you can do it! Congrats on the bronze spade. It is indeed hard to stay app free, especially when seeing so many success stories others are having. Congrats on your progress so far! Smiley Happy

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

Called up Wal-Mart today, expected to have the automated CLI denied, with plans to call underwriting directly afterwards.  Surprisingly, I got CLI'd from $700-900 by the automated system.  Its not much, but its a step in the right direction, so I'm content for now.  Will try again in 2-3 months, then call up underwriting then.

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

got a scorewatch update. up 2 points for one less card reporting a balance. 

now just 2 cards reporting a balance out of 9. aiming to have just my mastercard report a small balance at the begining of the year. 

i think ill take a swig at my beer from all this gardening ive been doing. 

 

sadly though right around christmas might have to get a new washer (old one is leaking) but whats the fun in just getting a washer when the dryers are screaming buy me.  0% finance for 18 months plus an extra 5% off the already low prices =) 

 

Plus I Hit The Half Way Mark For my Silver Spade!

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

I've been officially gardening since Febuary. I have around 7 Inquiries on EX--Im from CA so this is all they pull out here pretty much. Besides my card in Feb, all my apps reached 1 yr old around June. Hoping to stay Garden-Strong until all these fall off next year. The one thing nice about gardening is watching my scores rise as everything ages, slow and steady like a true garden. Smiley Very Happy

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

So I sat down at my PC this morning....updated my CC Excel file, then paid "this weeks" credit card bills.

 

I'm still in the garden...no apps, not really feeling the itch, but a bit frustrated with what feels like slow progress...

 

Hmph.

02/01/24 Fico 8: EX 757, EQ 803, TU 783.
Fico 9: EX 760 12/16/23, EQ 790 02/04/24, TU No idea.

Zero percent financing is where the devil lives...

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

Guys; should I apply for my auto loan pre approval with navy fed before I order the car; or wail til I actually need the funds? I'm going to order a new volvo through the overseas delivery program.

Nice! 

 

That's about the timeframe I'm looking at to go for a morgage, as well. 

 

Happy Gardening!
