You just keep shooting yourself in the foot!

 

Slow your roll and let things age before you really do something you regret.

 

Spend more time focusing on cleaning your reports than collecting denial letters to post on your wall as wallpaper.

Congrats on the approvals. I would DEFINITELY get back to the garden. Getting that many denials is a giant red flag telling you to stop apping. Enjoy your Dominoes lol

I'm trying to keep track, did you say you had 14-16 HP's, 140+ inquiries across 3 bureaus, only 2 approvals, and the other 12-14 were denials?  OP,  I 2nd the above feedback, glad you had an approval or two however agree you should continue cleaning up whatever is keeping the overall score down, and garden.  At this rate, probably another 1+ years in the garden for those inquiries.

Congrats on your approvals.

 

Why are your scores so low and why do you have so many inquiries?

You really need to STOP applying for anything and everything.

 

Focus on your reports and every 6 months ask for a CLI if you even have any unsecured cards.

 

Once you clean things up and things age for a year then you MIGHT be able to snag an approval from a legacy lender.
