No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Congratulations. That story is music to my ears. I am just now starting to pick up the pieces from the mid 500s and hope to get into Discover territory some time next year.
Thank you and I hope it motivates people and shows them it is possible. I know a year seems like forever when it comes to improving your credit but it does get better. I was in your shoes a year ago and I read so many positive stories that motivated me. It was very frustrating, I read the forums every night and seemed to check my credit scored every second I had. I even constantly went to pre approval links at Chase, Discover, Cap 1, Barclays and every where possible to get a better card (without getting an inquiry) weekly and sometimes daily. I was kind of obsessed but it paid off. Barclays eventually went from 'we couldn't find a pre approved offer' to 'you've been pre approved' and I jumped for joy! Then two months later Chase did the same and I got the Freedom card I've always wanted! Then finally 2 weeks ago Discover as well! Just keep at it and it'll happen to you too! My next card I want is an Amex but they longer have a pre approval link. I'm going to give it a few months and pull the trigger on their gold charge card. Good luck and just be patient and make sure not to have any late payments. Your credit WILL get better. Thanks for listening
