AMEX Platinum Approved

Just wanted to say thanks so much to the knowledge on this board for all of the help you have given me over the years.

 

Filed BK in August 2016 after making a lot of mistakes and knowing nothing about credit.

 

Less than 6 years later I have no more negatives on my report other than the BK.

 

Current scores are 717 EQ, 735 TU, and 736 EX.  I was also just approved for the Platinum AMEX and am super happy with the progress I've made.  Bought a new Kia Telluride last year and got KMF interest at 0.9% so just know that it's never too late to fix your situation.  I literally started with scores under 500 so to those who may be discouraged just read the wealth of info in this forum and learn from others.  You will be surprised how fast you can rebuild!

 

Again, huge thanks to all of the brilliant members and their posts on this board... literally helped me turn my life around!

 


BK 7 Scores (08/2016): EQ-528. TU-486. EX-530.
Current Scores (04/2022): EQ-717. TU-735. EX-736.
