Congratulations on a positive outcome GTC! I have to admit my eyes popped when I saw that information - 60 inquiries?! 29 accounts?! - but I'm glad you got it sorted out with Synchrony and got back to normal business with those accounts. It's a lesson to me to be careful, moderate and deliberate when rebuilding.

I will include some specific info below, I probably had it coming not really to upset about other than a large utilization loss. I of course declined the full prostate exam and called to close all of my accounts earlier today, the CSR did not even care except for one who did not even question me when I told her why I was closing the response "I understand completely".
Lots of new accounts
Lots of Inquiries
Had the Amazon Card, Chevron Card, CareCredit, Lowe's, Ritani, and CheapOair visa.
If you don't mind me asking, what happened the first time?
Sorry for the late replies everyone I have been on vacation. I have not been blue enveloped before I was just refering to others that had. I was not carrying any balances on any cards, the only thing unusually was that perhaps it was a red flag that I had made a double payment to the CheapOcard before the statement even cut. I am OCD about cards reporting balances. My overall util before the blue envelope was 4%, Also worthy of note is that I am relatively new to credit, I am 19 so most of my accounts have not had time to age.
