What's a BR? Also I've had credit cards for about 6 years all with good standing. Would this help?
Sorry I don't know how to quote/box a text.
Oh sorry, by BR I meant Bankruptcy. And yes 6 years of positive history is great!
No, I never file for bankruptcy. What are my chances of getting approve?
And please help show me how to box (quote) an original post.
Thank you!

Like I said, I don't have any experience with Amex approvals but I would say your have a pretty good chance of approval, depends on what the rest of your report looks like, annual income all that good stuff.

maybe its should be time for u to using your Discover Card for their reward structure and stuff. They also offer 5% to 20% cash back on ShopDiscover. I earn a lot of money by using their link so far.
Your score and history sound good but i dont know if there something hold you back maybe a baddie on your credit report that you dont even know ?????
I would try backdoor number for all of the cards you want increase limit. It's depend how sweet talk and stuff you are to them. You get lucky if its some nice customer service.
I dont find any reason why would you wanna close it since it doesnt come with AF.
A lot of folks here wish to have discover in their wallet. They pain in da *** sometime with their limit thou but i find something really reasonable about credit card company. The more you spend and responsibility you are to your credit card company then you would see some love soon.
Just patient i guess.
One more thing, your file should look good for BCE there is some 150 and $250 for BCP cash back bonus sign up.
Remember 9% credit rule before you apply for anything.
Good luck
Your chances of getting approved for BCE are pretty good. You very may want to see if you can get your score to 720 first. I was approved with a low income and only one crap1 credit card but a 738 score.

nicholasyud can clarify his statement, but this is how I use the 9% guideline when apping. I make sure that I rotate cards a few months ahead of apping time so that, at most, only one card at a time per month reports a balance of 1-9% of its limit. It's even better to skip a few months between reported balances to show steady but infrequent use.
Staying consistently below 9% looks good to potential lenders/creditors.
He means be sure that you are using 9% or less of your total available credit. Sorry, didn't mean to butt-in, but I thought I should just lay out the 9% rule. Axa has a nice strategy for upkeep of cards that will be beneficial in that it demonstrates enough use of the cards to show the issuing company that you are using your credit responsibly. This is conducive to the ccc being comfortable with giving credit limit increases, which will help you stay under the 9% utilization. I would certainly recommend that you follow a similar plan.
Concisely explained. Yes, that's the 9% rule.
