3 hard pulls for 1k limit is a tough pill to swallow but in the big picture, its no big deal.  The real bruiser is they pulled my EQ which was going to be just about perfect in a couple days(5 INQ's falling off, leaving 4) so I could app for my final card, USAA World MC. Really need to break into 5k+ limit territory.

My wallet:
Amex BCE|USAA Platinum Visa 3k|Barcalys Apple 3.5k|Veridian CU 5k|Discover It 3k|USAA Secured Amex 500|Amex Zync|USAA Patinum MC 3k|

Yep, on the phone as I type this. The rep is much more helpful and is attempting to verify my address by contacting my bank so hopefully I can avoid having to mail anything and get answer immediately......stay tuned
