On a roll.

Just approved for Chase Saphire for 5k! This is my 3rd real card that I have been approved for in 2 weeks. Thank you everyone, if it wasn't for these boards I would have never had the confidence to apply for the cards that I have been approved for. Next goal 700+ credt score.

Re: On a roll.

Congrats on a great card

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?

Congrats on your approvals! Would you mind sharing your scores, and do you have any baddies on your reports?

Re: On a roll.

I don't mind. According to USAA my scores are EX 635, EQ 607, and TU 598. Myfico 602. and creditkarma 614. My scores are all over the place and I don't know my true scores besides myfico. I am in the process of rebuilding I've paid off 1 car over a 5 year period no lates and am paying a loan and a car currently with no lates that are both a little over a year old. I have baddies on my report all from 6-7 years ago. When I was trying for a mortgage my loan officer said I had 13 collections I gave up on the loan and paid off all negatives, but they haven't updated yet. The last 5 years my credit has been perfect no lates and multiple loans paid off and before I had these new cards my total line of credit was 8,000 from Military star, store card, and 2 capital one cards. Those baddies are really killing my score lol. I have an income of $38,000.
