Your stimulator calculates credit scores? I need a new one then. All mine says is "requires 4 double A batteries".

Entertainment factor aside, did you have a retail/store account on your TU credit report beforehand?

 

Been some conjecture that retail tradelines are a negative, haven't found / seen proof of that though was one datapoint which suggested that was the case.

Honestly, not bad at all!! i was expecting more store cards.  IMO, you're good to go.  You have good cards.  I would garden for a year or two and then get a chase and/or amex.  

 

You probably wont use that care credit card much and will end up closing it.

You can merge the two cap1 into one after 6 months. I would wait longer and try to get CLIs on both as high as you can

Can wells fargo turn into unsecured eventually? if yes, that'll be cool.  Somehow a hard bank to get in to and you're in already.

BOA is great and will grow

Home Depot is another card lots os users get denied...good you have it already!

 

By the way, you really should change the title of your thread to simulator lol...just saying Smiley Happy

 

have a good one

What if it's a plug in the wall credit stimulator? The kind that could knock out the power in the whole neighborhood?
