Finally pulled the trigger on the CSP,

Held off of it for awhile.  Was happy in the garden, but the Freedom/CSP combo really would work for me.  So I pulled the trigger.   My Freedom has had a $6K limit, same as when I opened it a couple years ago.  I use it very heavy, but never a CLI.  Was hoping to get a bit of a bump on the CSP.  Got an instant approval for $25,600.  Strange limit, but I'm very happy with it.

Starting Score: 504
July 2013 score:
EQ FICO 819, TU08 778, EX "806 lender pull 07/26/2013
Goal Score: All Scores 760+, Newest goal 800+
Take the myFICO Fitness Challenge

Current scores after adding $81K in CLs and 2 new cars since July 2013
EQ:809 TU 777 EX 790 Now it's just garden time!

June 2017 update: All scores over 820, just pure gardening now.

Re: Finally pulled the trigger on the CSP,

Congrats.. I remember that article some time ago that you were thinking about it I knew you would end up in the 20k+ limit Smiley Happy...  Very nice approval.. Enjoy an awesome card.  Make sure to add an AU for an extra 5k UR points as well.

 

Also keep in mind if you want to move like 4k over from the CSP to the freedom to make it a nice round 10k that isnt a problem, just give them a shout..  I think 20k on a card is enough for most Smiley Happy
