rather high. about 80% but total limit for both cards is only 800 so i can pay those down to about 25% with ease.

If you aren't in a hurry, I would pay your balances down first. Scores will improve greatly.

Re: looking for EX pulling CCC

i kinda am in a hurry. the reason i dont wanna pay down the cards is because even if i get a 1000 dollar card my utilization drops below 50% and i wont have to spend much to get it to 25. if i get a 2000 dollar card its drops much lower and i wont have to spend anything to be were i wanna be.

Re: looking for EX pulling CCC

With higher scores, and a clean report, etc, you stand a better chance of approval for a card with a higher limit. JMO.
 
 629 on EX is not awful, however, I don't know what card to recommend. You can always check whogavemecredit.com.

Pay the cards off or close then apply. I think you can wait 30 days right? You apply now you are in a severe position of weakness with 80% utilization.

Re: looking for EX pulling CCC

80 percent util eliminates Amex I believe. They are big on util.

While lowering util would greatly improve your scores, if you are really in a hurry you could always app for HSBC/Orchard. They are a pretty exclusive EX puller that I don't think would mind the util so much.
Here we go again...
