CapOne Venture Card tripple pull, FIA AMEX EX pull

[jamesdwi]

Finally got alerts from my two applications this week. 

CapOne tripple pulled me was hoping for only a single or double pull,  15k CL so it was worth it. 

FIA Fidelity 2% AMEX pulled EX,   6k CL so was worth it. 

only score drop was 6pts from Experian of course it was my lowest score allready now at 698   Will have to work to getting all 3 scores back over 700. 

Now to see if the improved UTL of having 21k new CL, and 5.5k CLI love from GE/Walmart helps enough to offset the damage. 

Applied for Sallie Mae and Best Buy in November, hopefully Barclays doesn't get pissed at this new credit, and the fact that I haven't even ran my first charge on my Sallie Mae card.

Congrats on the new cards.

6 months with no charges on a new Sallie Mae? 5% groceries isn't enough of an incentive to get you to use it?

had some financial issues, and figured it would be better not to add another minimum payment to the mix, should start using it this month. Started a new job last month.
