As you can probably tell, I am interested in obtaining the BCE/BCP and want to know how I stack up. If you were approved with under 700 FICO, that would be very encouraging. I have seen others on this site in recent week with approvals in the 690-720 range, which bodes very well for my chances. As always, score isn't everything, but it is my opinion that it is a good indicator.
@SnackTrader: Just received my card in the mail. Sadly, they didn't include my credit score in the packet. GL with your app, whenever you decide to do it. Cheers.
Starting Score: 625 EQ-FICO (12/31/2011), 631 TU-FICO (12/31/2011)
