Although I don't remember what score was from what credit buereau, I can ask the loan lady I was working with on Monday if that would help, also I had 1 late payment on my credit when I applied for hte mortgage loan, this was due to someone having me as an authorized user on THEIR credit card, after I found this out, i filed a dispute with the 2 credit agencies it was reporting on and got them deleted from my credit report, so the scores should be higher on the lower 2 since it was reporting on those two only
Amex and Chase in most cases will pull EX and possibly EQ so if scores are over 670 there your in better shape
Close on the mortgage and go straight home and app away but be prepared to recon all due to the large number of INQ's
Some of which can easly be explained as mortgage ...hopefully the car too.
All but 7 INQ's are over a year old so that will help a little
Thank you for the insight Which Amex do you recommend would give me the best shot, where would i find recon number for amex? I have the chase slate recon number already
Charge cards are the easiest to get approved for and if approved app the revolver of your choice. In most cases it will be the same HP..YMMV tho
The recon number can be found in the backdoor sticky thread at the top of the CC forum page
Done and done, thank you both for hte responses, The credit pull from cox communications shoudn't cause any problems for me closing my mortgage loan right? I was told by the cox rep it woudn't do a pull... I was extremely upset when i got the alert hte next day

Just so we are clear, Amex recons are successful IF the CR they pull is incorrect. They will not recon correct CR's or entertain explanations as to 'why'.
I would suggest, if your scores are hovering around 650 and you are ok with another inq- then try for a charge as has been suggested. However, I would have plan B ready in case that option fails.
Lenders that are more flexible with recons are Chase and Barclays.
Forgot to mention that thanks Lexie your the best
At this point you defininately have an inq problem..combine that with 600ish scores and even IF prime lenders give you credit cards their limits will probably be measly... If you have it in you to be a little patient and wait 8mos -a year and keep your balances down, the sky would be the limit for you because you're in great shape otherwise!!!!
I believe Express is a SP for a CLI online. May need someone else to chime in.
Also, unless you plan on doing BT, I would stay away from the Slate and instead get a Freedom and/or CSP. Freedom at least.
