Couldn't Resist

So I was gonna garden after all my approvals from my post closing spree. Well that didn't happen! Was a long time andriod user and decided I will finally take the plunge into the apple world. Went to apple.com to pick out a new Iphone 12 Pro. Saw the apple card 0% interest for 24 months and a reasonable monthly payment, well you all probably now what happened after. Ran the pre-approval and bam approved for a modest $1500. Was enough to cover the phone so couldn't complain. The day I recived the card in the mail I got a email and they raised my CL to $2,000 dollars. After all the hard pulls from my spree my scores did actually rose a few points especially on TU. At the time of app I think it was a 705, INQ were at 9-10.

 

Well a few days later I was on the phone with my buddy talking about the apple card, and he's like see if you have any offers from Amex. I already told him I was denied for the gold card a month ago and I doubt I will have any offers. I was like what the heck let's see. Ran it and had offers for the Delta Gold and 2 Hilton cards. Went for the Delta was barely approved with the starter limit of $1,000. But finally in with Amex. EX was at 699 at approval and probably 9 INQ. 

 

So this time finally going in the garden, going to let all these cards age and hopefully grow. That's 7 new accounts in a little over 30 days. DONE!!Smiley Very Happy
