I close on my mortgage 5/7 and plan on doing an app spree to fund things like furniture & houshold items. Based on my scores (see sig) whatdo I have a shot at?
On my list:
Barclay's rewards
Discover
Walmart
Bank Of America
Amazon
I want to go for better cards, but I'm scared of being denied.
TU is clean, 1 year credit history. 4 accounts. $5200 total. Utl @ 9%
Experian and Equifax have the same accounts plus 1 more, a utility bill not included in revolving credit. I previously had 2 consecutive 90+ days late reported Jan/Feb 2014. I have a recent inquiry from my mortgage, and my last inquiries before that took place in Oct 2014.
Thanks! I only have open sky (secured) fingerhut and 2 cap 1 cards, platinum mc & quicksilver
And I really want Chase but not sure about approval. Is freedom or slate better/easier?
What about Citi?
Also want care credit for dental work.
Also, the PlayStation card from Capital One.
Beware, Chase has exclusively pulled EX for me and many others. I'm in CA for what its worth.

Are you sure you know what you want specifically or do you just want a foot in the door with those lenders?
Check prequals for chase and citi and see what you get and use credit pulls database too.
I bank with Chase, so both. I've tried prequal a trillion times with them and it never matches me to anything. :/
Only prequal I can find is BOA, and I'm not even 100% sure it was prequal. Seemed like a recommendation. Wasn't specefied.
Been searching database for months. These all seem best matched for my needs & scores. Just not sure what specifics each lender looks at.
Barclays pulled only TU for me.
I've heard they've only pulled TU recently (all hearsay...)
Credit pulls DB suggests they always pull TU, occasionally one other CRA as well
You have 2 qs1 cards? Mine just graduated and I got $2000 increase from $300
