Mini App Spree Final Results: Nice...3-3, Thank You Forum!

ScarletFever — Fri, 13 Dec 2013 22:48:55 GMT

As a follow-up to a previous post regarding my mini app spree, here are the results with a brief review. First, a big thank you to forum members for help and guidance., my last five apps/cards were cards recommended and liked by forum members. Will pay it forward by giving a little extra sumpin' sumpin' to charity this holiday season. Last two cards/apps were Citi Diamond Preferred and Discover cashback bonus. This spree: App'd on a Sat. Chase Freedom: App'd first. 7-10 day message over the phone, approved last, five days later-$6500 cl revealed on receiving card.Pulled TU in NJ. Citi Thank You: App'd second. Approved online right away. $6500. Pulled Exp in NJ. US Bank Sig Visa-Rutgers Alumni Card: App'd online,7-10 day message approved 4 days later.$9000! Nice surprise opening env for that cl! Pulled Exp in NJ. THOUGHTS: Citi always shows the luv.No BS,approved right away and knew cl immediately. Chase made me sweat, which I expected, but came through. US Bank shocked me with cl. Merry Christmas! Knowing how we all obsess over strategy,timing, types of credit to apply for, etc. Like many people, I experienced much anxiety over the apps hoping I didn't blow my chances with multiple inqs in same one hour period. I added $22,000 in Visa credit, and feel like I finally have my credit big-boy pants on, adding to the measly $9100 in Visa and Discover credit I had until now. It took Citi and Discover almost three years to increase me $1600 and $500 respectively. Thanks again!
