I'm going to cry happy tears

I was on the USAA site to check our insurance balances and decided to look into their secured CC. Read all the info about the card and clicked the apply button, completed my personal info and was fully expecting to have to enter my/our banking info for the deposit. Clicked next and the page hung for what seemed like an eternity (probably 2 minutes at the most). I started to get frustrated because I didn't want a hard pull for nothing. Anyway, the page switched to the congratulations page. I was approved for the unsecured Classic Platinum MasterCard for $1000!!!! This card brings my available limit from $600 to $1,600.

 

I am tickled pink! The little bit of progress up to this point is paying off and I now have even MORE motivation because I know things are getting better! Gonna keep fixing my report and keep using what credit I do have responsibly.

Re: I'm going to cry happy tears

Getting your first credit card after years of being declared unworthy of credit is such an exhilirating feeling. There's nothing quite like forward momentum. Smiley Very Happy

 

CONGRATULATIONS!
