With the confidence I gained from the Chase app I figured I might as well go ahead and finish my first mini-app spree and go for the PRG AMEX. I wasnt disappointed and got it too. I started this weekend with $1600 combined credit and I end it with $9100 combined credit and a NPSL PRG. All of this since December 11th.
Should I wait until these cards appear on Credit Karma to pull all three Credit Scores? With CCT only pulling them once every three months my thinking is to wait and pull it after they post as opposed to now.
Congratulations!
With that kind of improvement why don't you go ahead and open a myFICO 3B or Ultimate 3B acct and put it on one of your new CC's? That way you will have actuall live scores that will show almost every detail of the ups and downs in your scores. You won't get the actula reports as often but the other info that's not available anywhere else in invaluable. Quit looking at the CK's and CS's
Thanks, everyone. I am surprised how quickly my plan is taking shape. Yes I know CK isnt worth a thing but I do use it just to gauge how the wind is blowing each week. I plan to use both CCT and MyFICO once I get into a maintenance type of phase. The next step in my maintenance phase is to refinance the auto loan. My plan is to wait until these cards hit my credit report and then hope for a great rate.
