No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
It really depends on what your spending pattern is. Chase Freedom is great if you can take advantage of the bonus categories. Other wise one of the 2% cards may be a better choice. You might also want to look at the Sallie Mae card as well. You'll be approved for anything you want but it comes down to what will maximize rewards on your spending.
Well, I finally bit the bullet and decided to apply for the Chase Freedom (the categories look great for the upcoming months: gas stations, and Amazon for the holiday season?! Yes please!) - and I got approved for a $17,000 limit! So excited!!
In addition, I asked for (and received) my 3x CLI increase on my AmEx, so now I have an $18,000 limit with them.
Feeling brave, I also pushed the button for CLIs on my WFNNB cards (Victoria's Secret, J. Crew, The Limited and Express) and was granted an increase on all of them.
My available credit just went from $14,650 to $45,350! I'm over-the-moon excited...and headed for the garden.
Thanks for all the input and help in making my decision!
17k starting limit on a Freedom? You're kidding me, right? Lol Congratulations!!!
Discover It and the Chase Freedom. I got them with excellent starting rates ($10k and $5k respectively) and my credit is way less than yours at around 670-700 when I got them.
