Bump for helpSmiley Wink

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

They sent me the offer just now but im not doing it. My girlfriend has the card and has no real use for it other than a free fico score that she can get from her walmart card. No annual fee is good and high interest is bad. Also they dont allow customer requested CLI which is a sign of a bobo card.

I have Merrick, but I'm just about to get my sixth statement in a few days.  AFAIK, Merrick doesn't like to be SD'ed.  There was a post recently that stated they used the card and PIF to avoid the steep interest, and they received 2 CLIs in the past year.  

 

My plan is to pay off what remains on my balance and them use Merrick to fund my PayPal (I have recurring charges for Hulu and Netflix through them).  This way, I can keep it active.

They're a great rebuilder card, but looking at your siggy, you've outgrown them.  In fact, looking at your siggy, you've outgrown half the TLs in your siggy.
