1) Thanks for the kind words Lover & Hawk😇
2)Abelcrdn, I'd basically say the same goes for you let your accounts age.
You've got nice CLs...8 of your 9 UNSECURED...Use as you PLEASE credit lines accounts have been issued with multiple THOUSAND dollar availability.
Not bad, friend.... Nothing to sneeze at
Once one considers the POSSIBLE 'risk' associated with that scenario (nothing personal, just from a possible RISK POV)
More ppl would actually see that you are in a GREAT position and actually thought of pretty well...All things considered.
Think about it...IF you were in the lending and waiting and hoping to get paid business, no matter what the current score was...How far in the BACK of the line would YOU want to stand....Ya know, just in case
Yeah, you might say Yes but as I mentioned earlier, you probably be a bit more conservative with the amount of zeros in the SL offered, just like Navy, right?

That's seriously one of my current issues. I want to be in the garden, but it's soooo hard to NOT app lol
Out of curiosity, what were your credit scores prior to your spree? How many inquries did you get on each bureau from the spree? Have any of the new accounts showed up on your reports yet? I'd be curious to see what your score drop is from the 8 new accounts once they are all reported and how long it takes you to recover from the spree and have your scores return to where they were prior.
Before the spree, my FICO score was 702. Ex 700, TU 698, EQ 678.
I already had 4-5 Inq, and gained 5 more throughout the whole spree I just had.
None of the accounts have been reported yet. I'm guessing it's because I have not confirmed them yet, because supposedly they're on their way.
I'm confused about the scores you listed. You said your "FICO" score is 702 and then you listed 3 more scores, one from each bureau. Where are you getting all of these scores from?
I would think if you just opened 8 new accounts, you'd have at least 8 more inquiries that just showed up unless some simply haven't yet. Certain creditors like CO for example also hit you with inquries across multiple (all I believe) bureaus, where most usually only land on one bureau.
The accounts haven't reported yet just because they're so new. Sometimes they can report in a week or two (that's the fastest I've seen) but some can take a month or even 2 months.
The first step is defining your source for the credit scores you provided, then making sure you use the same source in say 2 months when all of the accounts have been reported for comparison purposes if you're willing to post the numbers in this thread at that time.

I am in the same boat, does look like the cards you got picked are all good cards! I just had two secure cards that I use to get my desired cards
1.) Amex BCE $1,000
2.) Amex Delta $2,000
3.) Costco Citi $6,500
5.) Barclay MC Rewards $7,500
6.) Southwest $2,700
7.) Alaska $2,800
8.) Us Bank Cash + Visa $2,000
9.) NCFU $2,600
I love every single one of them! And use them all !! Citi and Us bank are both on 0% interest . Was kinda disappointed with my NCFU since my scores are all above 730 but oh well.
Wow.. You have a lot of Airline cards..
Was thinking of apping for the BOFA Asiana Airlines couple of days ago to use to purchase plane tix to Asia. In the end, I ended up paying it with my Discover IT card.

Very well worded Gemini.
OP, you have done very well for yourself. Congrats on your portfolio.
Best credit wishes to you!

Oh and I'm probably too old to learn new material...
And trust me it was for educational purposes... Neither Boston and for darn sure Green Bay are my squads but they unfortunately are honestly the best examples.
I don't have love for the Pat's and I've been known to root for ANYONE playing the cheese (as any real Bear fan should 😉) however I am not blind and won't LIE on results...
Thanks now... I have to sit here and think about what it'd be like to have a QB😶
