Went on a little app spree...

eddie84 — Sun, 22 Jun 2014 16:08:34 GMT

Jared/Kay Jewelers - $5100
Zales (Citi) - initially approved for $1500, asked for CLI to $5k and was approved next day
Amex Delta - $1k (I'll take it! )
Macy's - initially approved for $300, asked for CLI and was approved for $1200
Bloomingdale's - same lender as Macy's, initially approved for $500, called it in and they gave me $3k
Chase Amazon $800 (didn't get it instantly but found out I got approved the next day)

That's it for now. No more app this year. lol

Heh, thanks! Just got myself a Tag Heuer Carrera. Those Jared/Kay cards were pretty easy to get approved. Now I'll just have to pay it off within 6 months. lol

Congrats on all your apps, but especially that AmEx! Use it well, and hopefully that 61 day 3X increase will be headed your way!

Oh wait... thought I was done. Add a Chase Amazon on that list please.. needed a $60 off coupon so I applied and found out I was approved this morning (this will be my 3rd card with Chase).

Congrats!!

So odd! Another Kay card at $5,100 and your scores are significantly better than mine! This is MyFICO user number 6 I've seen in the last two months with the same limit! Scores ranging all over! I wonder what's on each of our credit profiles that they like?
