In addition to my recent app. spree (http://ficoforums.myfico.com/fico/board/message?b
Being happy camper with PenFed and having read a lot of positive things about NFCU and USAA (not eligible) decided research other military FCU, assuming that they are good and found Andrews FCU. As usually, friendly CSR, a lot of paperwork, approved for $20000 CC at 10.95%. Applied for LOC asking for $5000, offered $1000, refused, application denied.
I always dealt with CU's via phone or e-mail and never been in branch. Took my kid to karate class, hand him over to sensei and went outside to smoke and what I see? Right, branch of local CU. 30 min later I have new $15000 CC at 7.9% and $5000 LOC at 9.99%
Ameriprise World Elite MC was on my list, mostly because of free priority pass. Even with $150 AF it is still worth for me to have this card. Approved for $25000 CL at 4.25% APR
I think that I am done for very long time.

Congratulations wmarat!
Very nice credit lines. The Ameriprise is superb especially with the APR of 4.25% and the fact you can take advantage of the priority pass perk. I travel frequently and agree with you that this type of perk at an airport is valuable. It is most difficult to put a dollar value on the priority pass but I would say you will be well served with this card.
