approved for AMEX Trueearnings Costco Card

Just went to Costco. Signed up with a Gold membership. Paid the $50 initial annual membership fee with my AMEX Blue Cash CC. And applied for the Trueearnings Costco card at the same time. Instantly approved with a $12,300 CL, 0.0% intro APR until 10/11. 15.24% after that.

 

I've never been a member of Costco until today. Also I have never been a member of Sam's. So this should be fun!

Costco is better than Sam's... any day of the week IMHO.

 

Congrats!

Congrats! It's a good card.

 

And pick up some roller skates or hiking boots for your next trip to Costco. I've never seen such a ridicuously huge store, or one so confusingly laid out. I pretty much have to go up and down every single aisle just to find the item I'm seeking.

That' a very nice looking credit report you've built!  It looks more like an 800 FICO than a 700-something FICO, so I assume your scores are going nowhere but up.  Smiley Happy

 

Congrats on your good work and on your new Costco AmEx!

Thanks!

 

I lived my entire life without ever owning a CC. Only when I hit my late 30's did I finally decide to get my first one. So my scores are probably not where they should be because of lack of age on my accounts.
