Re: Auto cli Merrick Bank

As long as you use it you'll get CLI's.  I've stopped getting them on my old hooter's card as I don't use it anymore but I do have another one that I believe is an old Geico but could be ESPN, not sure, but anyways still use it and it gets regular CLI's.  Up to over $3k on it. Hooters topped out at $1900 but like I said I stopped using it.

I had wondered about those infamous Hooter CCs... I guess they are still around.

They aren't Hooters cards anymore, they are now just plain black Merrick cards.  I've got two now.  Can't remember what the other started as but if memory serves it was a Geico card.

So, the old HOOTERS design/logo is gone?  I remember back in the day when Merrick was giving these out like crazy... then, they stopped issuing them.  I never had one, but it was just interesting to see folks plop down that infamous CC.

Re: Auto cli Merrick Bank

I just got a pre-selected for a $500 Merrick Bank card today in the mail and I am considering fully applying.  They said they will double the like to 1k, after the 7th payment.  No prob, I will PIF like my other cards.  I am almost 3 months out of my Ch7 BK, I have 2 Cap 1 cards that have been reporting for almost 3 months now with a CC Util of 6%.  I am going to keep it there, even if I get this card.  I would like to have a total of 4 cards, as I want a WM one as well for the FICO and sorts.  Have yall had great luck with the company?  Plus, what FICO score comes with this every month?  TY

Re: Auto cli Merrick Bank

Yeah they are quite good for CLIs as long as you use the card. 

It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.....
Always follow these rules: Only take a HP for a new account. Always use the best rewards card for that reward category. Don't close a card unless you know you really should. Never use more than 35% of a credit limit. Recon as much and as best you can. Use the introductory period to the best advantage. Get the signup bonus. Whenever possible PIF or balance transfer so you pay less in interest. Never give an excellent rating when it is actually the norm. Always look for a discount as more is always better.
Always accept candy from strangers because they have the best candy or from people you know have good candy.
