Applied for 9 Cards in 3 Weeks

[CoolHandSean]

Here's what happened in order:

Applied 17 September

• Capital One Venture X: $30K

Applied 7 October

• US Bank Altitude Reserve: $10K (Approved after Recon)
  
• X1 Credit Card: $27.5K
• Apple Card: $8.5K
• Citi Double Cash: Denied
• Wells Fargo Active Cash: $16K
• Citi AAdvantage Exec World Elite: Denied (Technically didn't count as a denial because the Double Cash denial prevented the application from being reviewed)
• Chase Amazon Prime Rewards: $21K (Approved after Recon)

Applied 10 October

• PayPal Cashback MasterCard: $5K (I was curious if I would still be approved considering all the recent FICO CRA inquiry updates on my app and I though I read somewhere that you can be pre-approved for the PayPal card without a HP. I was dumb and didn't realize that even though they say if you aren't approved they won't do a HP, this isn't actually a pre-approval where you can choose if you still want to proceed. Once I was approved it automatically processed the application and did a HP. So yeah very dumb on my part).

All in all I was approved for 7 of the 9 cards I applied for but there was only truly the 1 denial because Citi didn't process the AAdvatage application. Welp, time for me to go gardening for at least 10 years lol

Update: EX dropped 33 points post app spree. Still waiting on EQ and TU to update but they always take forever.

Dude, you are crazy... like a fox.  I love it.  Congrats on the solid additions.  Yes, grab a rake... or a hoe, and do some gardening

CONGRATS!!!!!

WOW THATS A LOT OF CARDS

[CoolHandSean]

I know I have a problem lol. Just love the validation of getting approved for credit and the satisfaction of achieving the minimum spend to get welcome bonuses and filing the card away only to get another card and do it all over again.

Dude, you get no hate here.  I'm loving it.  And I admire anyone with a brass set, which you obviously have.  And if the name in your username belongs to you that's even better.

Maybe loose your log in for chex systems that way you have to wait for a snail mail replacement? Maybe the urge will pass. Trust me, I know. Congratulations on approvals though.

Wow! That was quite the spree haha. Congrats on the approvals.

Congrats on the approvals but I believe the tortoise wins the credit race.
