Awesome!! Our members have had fantastic results with those surveys!

Absolutely fill out that survey. I also got one and filled it out.
I am not done with this PenFed process yet and that survey is sure to also play a part in the overall results of things to come.
Absolutely let them have it!! When you're done you will probably have $30/$40k

Awesome Alliant approval!!! I can't wait to receive a preapproval!!
When you get one don't sit on it like i have for 2 months.
If i had knew the results could have been this sweet i would have acted on it a lot early but it still turned out wonderful!
I started out with Navy Federal,Loquat. They are alot more generous to rebuilders. Penfed has loosened their criteria ALOT though. It used to be that you couldn't get approved with ANY baddies and everybody was an Egyptian.
Times have certainly changed over at Pentagon Federal.

Oh don't worry. I'll be jumping out of the garden for that app. How long were you a member before you got it?

Membership approved in 2015 and opened an IL with them which was also approved.
This is a first cc with them but certainly won't be the last if this is any indication of just how very well developed they are.
Holy WoWza! I am Super Jelly ... look at all that Peanut Butter!
Congratulations !!!! What report did they pull on you.
You probably posted it somewhere and I have not tripped over it yet.
You probably are still doing the happy dance.
Did you do the survey yet... ?
If so .. did you mention this in your survey?
Spill the beans.

I just completed my survery... I injected some BellaLina humor into it ...
Hopefully I not only get them to smile.... I would prefer a reduction in APR .. but if not they can tweak my limit just a tad.
Or maybe bestow a PLOC .. I have not apped for yet. We shall see.
I just wanted to be a little different in my survery paragraph ..

Good Luck to you for some positive improvement for the effort.
I also sent mine sparkled with Magic and so i guess tomorrow will tell how much confidence to spare with them or not.
Good folks on all your surveys! Hope it yields everyone great results!

Thanks to "baller4sure" baller4life for this thread! I'm loving PenFed already.
Congratulations!! Awesome refi rate! By all means you can recon cc limit. Call and ask for a supervisor.
Baller, I need to give you some type of commission or something lol. Called Penfed to recon and gave some info. A loan officer called back asking about the derogs. Gave my explanation and was told to check online later or call to see if recon was approved. Then received this email the next day:
Congratulations! Your PenFed Platinum Rewards Visa Signature application has been finalized, and your loan or credit card documents are in the mail, along with your loan check (if applicable). The documents have been sent to the address you specified in the credit application. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@hq.penfed.org or 1-800-247-5626.
Recon results...$15,000!
Meanwhile, this email came yesterday:
Welcome to Navy Federal. Your accounts have been opened and a welcome packet will be mailed to you. A Visa Check card will arrive in seven to ten business days. If we can be of further assistance, please contact us at 888-842-6328. Thank you.
I "balled out!"
Seriously, thank you and myfico for sharing all of the important information to help better credit.
