App Spree and Approvals!!!

Anonymous — Thu, 15 Sep 2016 05:19:54 GMT

I had been in the garden a while, as I was in the market to purchase and close on a home. At the conclusion of that process I went on a little app spree and here are the results:

American Express Platinum Mercedes Benz Card

American Express Blue Cash Preferred

Barclay Card Arrival Plus

Discover IT

CITI AAdvantage Executive World Elite Mastercard

Navy Federal Cash Rewards

Navy Federal NavCheck

I travel a lot for work and I wanted to take advantage of some of the great bonuses that some of the cards were offering (and the fact that I can write off the annual fees). I took on a GREAT many inquiries but luckily I was approved for all of the cards I went for. Again, I have to say how appreciative I am to the members of this forum for their very helpful advice and words of encouragement for those of us rebuilding. I have gone from NO available credit to a $500 Capital One card to $150,000.00 in available credit in ONE YEAR. This is proof to all of those struggling at the earliest stages of rebuilding, it can DEFINITELY be done!!!

That's incredible progress in one year. Congrats on the house and the cards! A few of those sure are purty!

Thanks! There are some awesome cards in the bunch! I will say that my bills and payment spreadsheet would probably freak some people out, but I'm glad for all the new opportunities to keep my utilization LOW and get great perks!! I'm most excited about the 6% cash back on groceries from the Blue Cash Preferred! How can you turn down getting PAID to go grocery shopping?!?!
