BofA 1-2-3 Rewards Approval!!! First Prime Card!

So today I went into BofA branch near my house to make a deposit and while the teller was helping me the Bank Manager asked me why I didn't have a BofA Visa.  I told her that by accident a few weeks ago I put in the pre-approval number twice which put two applications in play and BofA cancelled them both notifying me by US mail last week.  The manager was like let me call up to make sure and the CSR said I had no apps in the system, so the Manager put in my info for the card.  Of course I'm sweating, because a) I'm rebuilding my credit i.e., sent out PFD, credit report disputes, etc. b) my credit scores are in the beginning 600s,and c) I'm supposed to be gardening after an app spree last month (6 new accounts).

 

Well to my surprise I was appoved! I called in and my credit limite is $1000! My highest limit so far and my first prime card with NO AF!!!

I know the CL is not large, but that is OK with me for now as I am still in the rebuilding stage. 

 

I am so I found the help i needed here because it has helped me greatly with getting my credit back on track!!  Back to the garden I go.....
