USAA Post-Chapter 13 Credit Card Approval Data Point

Hello! My Chapter 13 was closed July 3; I began my rebuild in earnest with the following:

 

Cap One Quicksilver: $3k SL

Mission Lane: $2k SL

Ally Unlimited Cash Rewards: $1k SL

Ashley: $5k SL

Ikea: $7,2k SL

 

I have been a member of USAA off-on since the '90s, but only have insurance and a small bank account account there (l have about $20 in my checking account small-we bank at Chase and a local CU for everything else). Anyhow, I saw that USAA pulls Experian 3 bank card-after checking that score (668) I went ahead and applied and was approved for a $5k SL. 

I hope this helps anyone considering them post BK!  I am going to hold off on anymore applications but I will say to anyone else rebuilding: check preapprovals when available before applications- it saved me several hard pulls.  Oh, lastly, I did not burn them in BK (sorry PenFed....) but I did have an auto repossession about 15 years go thanks to my ex.
