Re: NFCU score and initial credit line?

Last year, my EQ FICO was between 650 and 675 when I apped w/Navy. They only gave me $2k, while others here with similar scores got much higher CLs. Navy told me that they use an algorithm to determine approval and CLs, so it's much more than your FICO that decided your CL. Also, they definitely give preference to people who bank with them as opposed to just getting a CC w/them.

My TU was 743 but my EQ at the time was about 680 because I had an inaccurate collection.  I let NFCU know that I was currently disputing my EQ and that my TU was a more accurate picture. They pulled TU again after pulling EQ for my credit card app. I was approved for 9,000 with 10.65% apr. I think my AAOA was 2 years with about $50,000 in student loans (deferred) reporting. Income only 40,000 a year.
