I was approved today... Scores and INQs are in sig... I got a $5k Delta Gold.  Forums said it was easiest to get... Not sure which CRA they pulled... Waiting on alert.

 

Yes I am too close to the end of the year... MSD 2015.

 

 


Do you know if your month will be January?


That's what I'm assuming.  Online login says 2015 and another poster who called said the last 7 days of the month are pushed to the next month.  I was approved 12/26.

 

They pulled EX.

On your credit report, however, the "Opened" date does have a calendar date. The first card is what it is. The second and subsequent cards use the month/day of that opening plus the original MSD year.

One new TL is enough if you don't need a Charge card for some reason.
