I don't know why I even did that pre-approval thing today lol.
Sometimes I will do the pre-approvals just out of boredom. I dont need/want anymore credit.

Please make this make sense somebody!!
Three basic cards in a very short period of time. Be glad they denied you. You need to use the cards you have and let them cook. A year from now you'll be in a better place. Just for reference, I was in a similar spot about two and a half years ago: unscorable and being denied for basic stuff even though I owned my home outright and had cash in hand. Capital One gave me a QuicksilverOne card which got the ball rolling. 30 months later my FICO score is breaking into the 800s with $60k+ available credit.

^This.
So, I just realized the OP is from almost 2 years ago. Nothing like commenting on out of date material. 😏
But, it makes me curious: @MikeyMagic , how are things going credit wise now? Have you progressed in your journey? An update would be awesome.
