@Dustink they are the best! :smileylol:hahha

Im a 18 yr old in high school with no annual income that loves learning new things about credit. I pulled my FIRST Experian Score from Quizzle.com (on 2-9-13). Quizzle.com was the only site that was able to find my credit report, the rest required more information in order to do so since I lack public records. I'll update on the cards I am currently as an AU because some haven't reported yet. I don't own any cards under my name since I don't have an annual income to include when applying. Im super EXCITED!! MyFico.com is awesome!!!

are those scores current? 

with no baddies im sure you would get it but it has no real perks. 

if you dont get this you get stuck with an af card.

i still find it odd that the store card has more prestige then the credit card version. 

 

besides its run by cap one now. ughh. 2 cards that were bought out by them for me. 


I just read through the terms, it looks like they got rid of the AF on the MC. It may actually be a prime card now. They lowered the APR from a 25% to 18%, not bad for a store card with 36 month no interest financing.


and thats 3 year finance on purchases 899 and up. and if not paid in full by promo all back interest gets tagged along. 

 

even with a 2500 limit my apr is 25.24% ouch. 


They also offer 48 months at 11.99% when the account is opened.

Re: New Best Buy RewardZone Store Card

Two product levels gold ($59 AF) or platinum ($0 AF), so the same old cards as before.

 

Haven't got anywhere on the phone call. I am just reading through the terms.

 

I asked for a PC to the plat MC, they said no and that I would have to apply again. So then I said no thank you, and asked about a CLI. They said it might be a HP, so I also said no to that. Productive call...haha

back in june a cli through the website. 

it was a soft pull. 

denied but due to other factors. 

 

i believe if you got the card before the takeover they still use the old practices (as in soft pull) but as always ymmv
