Call me crazy but I have been on a tear the last few weeks

 

NCSECU- $750 (this is a personal victory..they are VERY difficult to get even with 700+ scores)

Citi Forward- DENIED

Chase Freedom- RECON $2.5K

3-2-1 BankAmericard - 3.5K

GTE FCU Visa- 3K

NFL Visa- waiting on results

I'm fresh off a chapter 7 and would love to go on an app spree, but I'm not a fan of the inquiries.  Guess that's a part of the game.

Inq's matter... but not as much as you probably think... There have been plenty of people on here with 20+ inqs on their report getting approved for prime cards!

Goal: 700 and an Amex Card!
