Re: HOW MUCH CREDIT SCORE I NEED TO BE APPROVED FOR A 2500

It all depends on the bank as well as what is in your credit report. Approval is not based just off of scores alone. They take into consideration your income, score, types of baddies, age of baddies. Many banks have their own internal scoring system they rely on also. A $2,500 initial CL requirement for Cap1 will be different than those for Chase or BOA. 

 

Edit: When I say income is taken into consideration, I mean it is used to calculate debt to income as well as used to determine an initial CL

+1 it just depends on who you are banking with. If you have a reationship with a local bank or CU and direct deposit with them its a chance you can get a creidt limit that high with a low score.

Re: HOW MUCH CREDIT SCORE I NEED TO BE APPROVED FOR A 2500

I personally have never had any luck with PFD outside of medical so I personallly would just call each creditor or collection when you have cash in hand and ask for best offer to settle right now (hopefully they come back at least at 60% and I would offer no more than 50% but I don't offer 50% until I at least hear their offer because once in a while you get a 30-40% offer and if you led with 50% then you just lost out but most of the time it's 50% at best and you are talking very little money and get these paid... may not instantly change your credit but I found once I had paid collections (even when settled) I was then able to get credit when before I had banks tell me know because I had unsettled accounts... and since they are only 1-2 years old I don't agree with the folks that say not to pay colections without a pfd because it will hurt your credit... i'ts never been my experience that it hurts!
