3 Credits Approved in One Go [Update: Now 8 Cards]

Hi,

 

I have been consistent in maintaning my all and only 2 cards. Paying my mortage and my son's student loan smoothly. My son is recently going to graduate from college, i was thinking of getting him something. In regards to that, i checked my credit karma profile 2 days ago at night and it suggested some cards. I applied for Chase Unlimited, and got 10K instant approval, then an hour ago, i applied for Wells Fargo Cahswise and got 10K instant approval. I didnt wanted to push myself, so i left it with 2 cards. The next morning, i applied for Chase Saphire and got instant approved for 14K.

I know, all about Pulls and effects on applying 3 cards that fast, and other financial stuff i should know before appying. Thats why i have just 2 cards at the age of 49. If it wasnt for my son, i wouldnt have applied. I earn decent income to easily pay all cards, so no worries there. And i could give some time to myself now, so cards would help me too.

 

Also, i got Amex platinum and Cap1 Venture offer, i have applied enough and want all you guys suggestion, whether i should apply. I called both banks, and they said, i am preapproved, yet they will need to review it after i submit it online. Whether i need these cards: Yes. Now that my son has graduated from college and has got something to work on, and everything is going smooth, i wanna live life.

 

Its been two days, and i have not seen any inquires an any of my credit reports. Usually it should appear in a day, if i am correct. yes?

 

Here are some datapoints

Score- 792

Cards: 2x BOA credit cards

Mortage: 300K

Student Loan: 70K

 

Thank You all

Congrats on your approvals.

 

The Amex Platinum and Capital One Venture are both travel cards so unless you travel often enough to justify the $645 annual fees I would not suggest them.

-USBANK signature VISA (havent got the limit, approved today, waiting for the mail to arrive)

-Ally bank signature VISA (approved instant, but no limit, waiting for mail)

- Applied for Chase Freedom Unlimited Today, got pending review, called them, they asked if i was the one that opened many cards recently, and i said yes, APPROVED for 10K.

- Amex Platinum - 6k Approved after pending review.

- Best Buy - 3.5K approved after pending review.

- Citi Card - In review - i called, they said approved, but will get limit/card and other docs in mail.
