Anyone have an idea how they are with new accounts recently?
Since my long credit drought and only having Orchard Bank (taken over by Cap1), Merrick, and Credit One, with tiny limits, my scores have improved and I have apped for more cards successfully, with no denials.
Since May, I have a B of A secured card (99/500 and happy to have a chance back in with them), Overstock (2500 via SCT, now 3300), Sportmans Guide Visa (4500 via SCT), and Modells MVP Visa (SCT but a HP). That would be 4 new cards since May, and an AU on DW Visa with USAA for 7k.
I have low inq, one on each CRA, but 4 new accounts this year, plus the AU.
I am hoping USAA will be understanding and still approve me.
I have read about lots of folks on here with a lot of cards within a year, but dont recall if USAA was in their mix or not.
I am also a Vet but only auto insurance and the secured card with them, so far.
