Its been an amazing day!!

Hi all,

I cant thank you all enough for providing a credit recource like no other!! Woke up today to a myfico alert that my TU is up 60 points to 643, due to a successfull GW of a First Premier charge off. Still have 2 CO but both are paid and aging (3ish years now). Everything else is good, 3 open CC (all secured) and 2 store cards (via SCT) all around 6-12mos old.

I decided to hop out of the garden, to test the waters with an unsecured card.. Tried Banana Republic first. I work there, and spend a lot of money so I will get a lot of use out of the rewards. Been denied multiple times in the past. Finally in!!! Just a store card, but a 700 SL is my highest to date (or so i thought)

Feeling opitimistic, I figured id try for a Hawaiian Airlines WEMC from my bank. BOOM! APPROVED! 1500 is not exciting to many, but i am beyond extatic!!

Back in the garden I go!!!

Thats awesome! All that matters is what makes you happy-not what others think. It's nice during the rebuilding phase to get these good days to keep you motivated to keep chugging along. Keep up the good work, and congrats!

Thank you all!!

Okay I HAD to go for one more. Been wanting to be in with Amex forever, thought I was still years away. Applied for a regular ED. Instant approval for 1000. I'm in shock, still.

Now I'm really done!! Got everything I've been wanting for years. Couldn't have done it without you guys

Way cool on the Amex. Lots of new approvals. Congrats. Not seriously let them age in the garden-at least 3 mo if not 6 or 12. You are doing great in your rebuilding process-so don't let an itchy finger stunt your progress.
