BestBuy Visa Platinum Approval - great SL! Time to garden!!

This one shook me even more so than having Capital One let me back in after burning them for a lot of money in my BK7 less than 2 years ago. I have only had 1 citi card in the past - another Bestbuy Visa (Gold version) with a $600 limit that I closed 3.5 years ago on good terms.

I needed a new iMac and barclay wont let me back in because of BK. I had heard Citi isn't BK friendly either, but I figured, EH, whats another inquiry? If im blacklisted it will just be a denial with no ding anyways. But this just cancelled out that myth!

Stats:

Utilization approx 33%

20+ inquiries

Pulled Equifax (which credit karma shows as a 615 - but I know it is higher since they don't show the $4,ooo I just paid off in the middle of June).

 

I'm guessing my score is around 640-660. Time to garden for real!!!!Screen Shot 2018-07-08 at 2.48.24 PM.png

Congrats on your approval. I was just approved for this card last night. Same SL of $2000. I thought I was blacklisted too.
