Re: Goal Cards

Only two goal cards: Chase Freedom and AMEX BCP. I will be done with apping after that.

 

I currently have a CSP, WF, BofA and Nordies visa. I settled my only baddie (unpaid C/O) last month and will be updated next week. I want my new accounts to be > 6 months old, so I will be gardening until August/September, or longer if they have another $200 Freedom bonus like last year.

Re: Goal Cards

No new cards in my goal outlook just yet.

 

I would however like to PC to the BCE from Delta.

 

I am trying to figure out a good gas rewards card that I could get, but actually think the BCE card is actually the best option for this with my profile.  I seem to have a problem breaking through the 700 mark.  I have been at 698 and am now at 694. 

It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.....
Always follow these rules: Only take a HP for a new account. Always use the best rewards card for that reward category. Don't close a card unless you know you really should. Never use more than 35% of a credit limit. Recon as much and as best you can. Use the introductory period to the best advantage. Get the signup bonus. Whenever possible PIF or balance transfer so you pay less in interest. Never give an excellent rating when it is actually the norm. Always look for a discount as more is always better.
Always accept candy from strangers because they have the best candy or from people you know have good candy.

Re: Goal Cards

Now that I have a card from Chase; Citi; Discover; Barclays; and American Express, and a card from all four payment networks, I'm in no rush for any new cards.\

 

Hell, I want to get rid of at least one before the year is out.

 

But that being said, I have just two cards left on my wish list: the Sapphire Preferred and the Blue Cash Everyday. Once I get those, I honestly can't see myself applying for any more credit cards.

I Have Way Too Many of These.

American Express - No CLI or Appreciation Gift in 7 Years

Citibank - Handing Out Credit Limits Like Candy

Chase - Surprisingly, Still Tolerating My Credit-Chasing Ways

Bank of America - My Newest Bae.

Everyone Else.

Re: Goal Cards

I have pretty much the cards that I want. The only thing now is to upgrade them to their fullest potential. Once I get the last Card I want and upgrade the remaining cards, I will no longer find the need to apply for Credit Cards. My Goal Cards are as follows:

 

Good -> Better -> Best -> (Goal)

 

AMEX Charge: Green -> PRG Gold -> Platinum -> Centurion

AMEX Revolver: Blue Cash

BofA: Americard Platinum Secured  > Cash Rewards 123 Platinum Visa -> Cash Rewards 123 Visa Signature - Privileges Cash Rewards 123 Visa Signature

Merril Lynch: Merril Lynch + -> Merril Lynch Accolades (BofA Accolades)

Capital One: Platinum MasterCard -> Quicksilver MasterCard - > * Future World or Elite MasterCard

Discover: Discover IT Student Co-Signed -> Discover IT Personal with Co-signer Removed
