Comenity/IKEA $5.5k approval! w/ DPs

Moved to a new apt and need new furniture. Checked the prequal site for the IKEA Projekt card from Comenity. Gives you zero APR for 6, 12 or 24 months. Said I was prequalified for $5,500. Pulled the trigger and BAM, approved for $5,500!

 

Pulled Experian at 686, one 120 day late from 2.5 years ago.

30% utilization, 6 new accounts in the past year and 4 inquiries from the past year. AAoA 16 months at time of approval.

 

New couch and a hell of a lot of meatballs for me.

Congrats on the Ikea card! I did the pre-qual and it gave a good amount, but most people around here seem to end up with a substantially lower SL. Comenity likes you!
