Ok, NOW that's enough :)

I missed a call (at home) today from Cap 1 EO, wanting to speak to me about the email i sent them last night - Basically now, my needs have changed in the last 24 hours, I will now tell him that i ONLY want a CLI if they will do it with a soft-pull. - Current laughable limit has just been increased to $1250!!

 

After I emailed them, i decided to try for a Freedom card - Instant $4500 approval - I then pushed my luck and had a go at the Simplicity card - again, instant $4500 approval

 

Just now, I pushed my luck for the last time - I got accepted for Amex BCE, but can't find any indication of my credit limit on that one.

 

I now have a total of 3 Hard Pulls on my file, so i'll enjoy the garden for the next year - I have more than enough credit available for my simple needs

 

If Cap 1 wont give me a decent CLI without a hard pull, then It will still be in my "wallet: - but firmly behind my new ones

 

I must admit though - this applying for (and being approved for) credit is very addictive! lol - I'm now 3/3 in the last 24 hours - Im retiring! lol

Congarts nice cards 

Call for Amex limit

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?
