well this actually brightned my night a little. refer to smorgas board for more details.
anyways guess walmart doesnt care about util. and a 70% used cl.
best buy went from 2% to 70% result is a one point drop from 743 to 742.
jan 10th cant come fast enough.

Plus that and I recently found out Discover stopped offering credit score tracker. Not that they are related or anything. Just a feeling. I hope they don't. I like getting my monthly FICO free.
hope not its really the only reason i got the walmart card. of course the 5k limit doesnt hurt either.

Me too! Plus I barely used my card for the FIRST time yesterday! After 3 months of having it, no activity. I feared they would close it b/c I've been getting the free monthly FICOs without havin used it! I figured the reason I hadn't gotten my FICO yet was b/c they knew I was just using them for it. LOL. So I ran out and rented a movie from redbox. Lol. I'll have a $1.31 statement balance. Sorry Walmart. Your APR is just too high. But I do love your FICO!
i actually didnt use it for like the first month and a half i got it. (july)
then in sep i charged 2 things and pif before statement cut.
then charged once on whats on the statement now 245. one statement in 5 months and 2 cli from 800 to 5k. sadly american eagle isnt that generaous.
anyways ill be holding off on any more cli until my util goes down. according to my cc issuer, i spent about 700 bucks tonight. woohoo! good thing statement cuts next week... LOL
@maiden_girl wrote:Hahaha. 5k! That's awesome! Is it the Discover version? I think I'd die if my Wally Discover gave me a 5k limit before my real Discover did. I'll be requesting a CLI in about 2 weeks and use the "it'll be for holiday purchases and I plan on carrying a balance" excuse. Gold. Lol. They'll probably see my one $1.31 charge and be like PLLLLZZ. Lol.
sadly no! thats why i barely use it lol. i just told my parents to go use it and id pay for it.
like you said my apr is crazy high so its always pif. just not this time since they did it like a couple days before the statement cut and didnt tell me.
my aaoa now is 10 months or something like that no baddies. im surprised they havent offerd me the discover version.
ive gotten pre approved for the more an it but im not accepting any new accounts anyways. but amex might have to wait if discover offers me the upgrade.

I think it takes a minute before they offer the upgrade--some two and three years with the store card. I think you can call and inquire about the upgrade too and they manually review it. It doesn't hurt! 
no thanks. no hard pulls until after 8/30/12 unless its amex for the backdating. will be requesting freedom cl to match my new card which at that point will have 6 months of reporting history at 5k. freedom is at 500=/
firmly in the garden.
say it with me! lol
