Go get em...fingers and toes crossed for you

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?

Re: Too Much too Fast?

I meant I was grinning "ear to ear".... :smileyhappy, and was thanking you for the advice....   I was instantly approved for the Amex green, and the Amex BCE back to back.  Hopefully it will only be one pull on Experian.  I will find out tomorrow when i do my daily pull with USAA.

Grats!  If it is two experian pulls, then call experian and get CS and ask them to get rid of one for you.

Re: Too Much too Fast?

Thanks again. I think these 4 open trade lines should position me well for a mortgage refi in about a year. Could a few of you fine folks chime in with some advice on what Amex likes to see for usage with new cardholders? I want to treat these trade lines right, with hopes that they reciprocate.

Use them PIF

after 61 days request 3X CLI on the BCE

Agree 100%!

 

Be interested to see what your FICO score doees before these cards hit and afterwards.  Mind sharing that?
  I wouldn't be surprised to see your FICO score to be higher or it will in 6 months or so.

 

Also, what limit did you get on BCE?

 

Finally, where do you spend you money typically?  You might be able to do one more card that doesn't pull experian to enhance your rewards, but not really necessary.
