Applying for 2nd NF card after secured grad?

Good morning all hope everyone is doing well. I app for NF Amex card was declined. They mentioned my bk but I think they said reason was my internal score was reason for denial. My score was 329 out of 450. I think maybe I jump the gun a little. This morning I seen my secure card was being graduated. I see my limit was moved up to $2000. So how long should I wait to reapply for a second card? Thanks in advance. Hope everyone has a great day.

What reasons were given by NFCU for the denial?

When did you apply for the NFCU More Rewards AmEx?  When did your nRewards officially graduate?

Eh... let one statement cut with the upgraded card.  Maybe as many as three.  NFCU will show you luv, but give them a little time.

@Anonymous- I noticed you had already posted a previous topic on your NFCU prospects.  There is no need to create a new thread if an existing one relevant to the same topic already exists -- both have been merged btw.

 

As far as next steps, if you were recently denied for the More Rewards AmEx, I would wait until your recently graduated card has reached another 3 months and then try again.

 

I'm not sure how updated your signature is, but are those your current FICO scores?  How recently was your BK discharged?  Was it CH 7 or 13?
