This is awesome! Just wondering is BCP easier to get than the rest or is this just coincidence that was the approved card?

Thanks everyone. I don't know if it is easier, I saw another poster with similar responses from AMEX and they got approved for BCP. I thought, what the heck and went for it.

No that is actually harder to get than Delta. I don't know OPs story but I have ED and PRG already. ED since february. Testimonials here Delta seems like the first Card you're supposed to try for. a lot happens in a few months I'm sure OP's scores and history have gotten better since the last reviews

What's your Credit Profile? How many cards do you have? How long?

Re: Amex Approval - I don't take no for an answer!!!!

My credit profile, over 20 new accounts this year. Income between $55-65k. I have Citi double cash, Discover (secured) 1 Capone QS merged two cards BOA Cash Rewards (secured), a Credit Union Visa. I'm hoping my secured cards graduate in the next few months. I'm going to close most of my store cards over the next year. I mainly got them for utilization purposes. I have Walmart, JCP, Home Depot, Macy's, and Target all opened this year and I've received increases on them. I thought I was off to the garden with my Citi double cash, but I thought what the heck. I have prob over 25 inquiries on my credit profile. I don't suggest to anyone my credit plan, as it has been a very aggressive rebuild. I started out with my score in the 520's at the beginning of the year.

What is the reason behind trying to 4 different cards? Less than 60 days i assume?
