Maybe you should wait until you are liquored up, during Thanksgiving, and give it a go?Smiley Tongue

 

 


yea, that's something that i am considering.. i am not going to do it like right this moment or tomorrow. I just really want to do it in the next week or at the end of this month or the latest is at the beginning of Dec.. the bonus doesn't wait.. lol


 

 

Unless you are usually a big spender, you should get the cards as soon as possible so you can use them and get the bonus during Xmas spending.  So, I would start taking my first Vodka-Tequila Margarita about NOW...

 

 


I am not worried about the spending.. 500 in three month.. i would have reached that within a month.. (freedome)

 

i am not sure about how much i need to reach to get the blue cash everyday bonus.. i think it's a 1000 within three months? i will make it.. and the upromise is a first time use bonus.. so it doesn't require a spending limit..

Exactly! I'm sure my slurred speech wouldn't impress any CSR on recon.

Don't put it down.  I come up with great imaginary stated income and next thing I know a great CL follows!  Liquor apps work in mysterious ways...

I'd wait until christmas, so you get the 6 months of gardening. Do them all within 10 minutes of each other, but uPromise first, then freedom, then BCE. 

 

 

 

Mmmm do you mind elabrating the reson why BCE should be the last? I feel that is the most difficult one to get maybe? or the barclay upromise is the most difficult one.. i kinda think that freedom should be the last one?

It may be the hardest to get, but its the least important to you. I was attempting to balance the difficulty in acquiring the card with how useful the card would be to you and how much you wanted it. It seemed like BCE was a nice addition, but less important to you than the other two.

I believe there is no web pre-qual for uPromise, but do you get a "congrats" for the other two cards at their websites?

 

My app sequence would be:  uPromise, Amex, Chase.

You are right about it. It is the least important to me.. I got it for two reasons.. to balance the hit to the AAoA and to have an "amex" card.. lol

just checked amex.. nothing came up at all.. it says sorry we can't find an offer for you.. i guess i can't get anything from them then.. so i probably shouldn't even try the blue cash everyday one..

Instead of waking up the next morning in bed with someone you don't know in this case you wake up with 6 approvals and 15 declines and a score drop of 100 points


Or 6 approvals, 15 declines, 9 pendings, and 3 fraud alerts. Smiley Very Happy
