$51400 added to the "family pot"

Wildin' outWildin' out

Disclaimer: I could have far worse habits ... but this is an addiction!!!!!!  I want all the Credit.... give it all to me 😈

 

I posted the other day about the dw success w CSP! Im rather proud of that because we've worked so hard to get to where we are financially! I'm in a group on fb and there was a whole thread on FNBO so... peer pressure got the best of me (it didn't take much). Both of us prequal for $15k. I decided to let her go for it since she had fewer inq (and I told 2 friends about it). And I was undecided about what I would do knowing Chase is inq sensitive! I was preapp for Slate Edge, CSP and Freedom Flex. I read awful reviews about slate of people with sky high credit scores and income getting small starting limits. I'm not about that life! So I decided against that one. The DW had just gotten CSP and added me as an AU so I decided against that one because there's no way we would run up that much over the next 4 months for the points 😅 So, I researched Flex and saw there were decent limits and I went for it, no questions asked! BUT IBD THEY HIT ME WITH A DOUBLE WAMMY ON TU AND EXP! Before it even came back as an approval, I had already received emails that there were inquiries, from Amex, Credit Karma and Experian. Phone was vibrating like crazy, I almost dropped it!!! And then boom, $18500

 

Soooo... 

 

2/6/22 Freedom Flex $18500

2/5/22 FNBO $15000

☝🏾DW👇🏾

2/3/22 CSP $17900

 

And... of course we added each other as AU... boom 💥

Congratulations on your approvals and SL! Looking to get a Chase Sapphire Reserve/Freedom Flex myself also as I'm already pre-approved for them.
