The score alone does not dictate.
if you have open negatives will hurt chances. if everything is old. i would say 580-610 should do it.
Im in 700-710 range.

NF...remind me again how you got this.. You applied for another card right , and did you get the counter offer immediately on the computer or by mail? I bet your card unsecures early...

Your score is definitely high enough for a secured.. who knows they might go unsecured even!

BOFA straight unsecured goes down to 670ish. NF how'd you get the partially secured one, did they ever state why on recon or similar? I would've been applying with confidence. BOFA Cash Rewards isn't a high end card even from BOFA's product mix.
Not sure a range for the 99/500 was really ever established but I might've missed it, likely 640-680 would be my SWAG (some overlap in ranges depending on strength of file), though looking at credit pulls database there were some denials around 640ish.
DW got an invitation to apply thru the mail, applied online and got the 7-10 message. We thought she was denied, but she was approved a few days later. Her first credit line in the rebuild stage. Most of her baddies must have fallen off, but she still probably has some educational baddies on there. If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll have her look it up.
