I stepped out of the garden briefly to pick up cards to meet my goals for the rest of the year and I know how much we love our DPs
I cannot believe these approvals happened even though the Disco is already in my hand...
Discover Chrome: 9k @/16.24 no HP/soft pulls since I began using Scorecard 8/2017
USAA Cashback Rewards Plus Amex: 2.5k @17.99 no HP yet **EDIT** HP on Experian this morning
AMEX PRG: SP
EX 657, EQ 679, TU 651
AOOA 11.7/AAOA 2.8
3 paid CO due to fall off CR 2019, no other derogs
1% utlization, AZEO, auto loan
Time to scurry back to the corner of the garden farthest from the gate until December 2019.

I am so ready to come back. These apps and approvals weren't fun...they were stressful. It used to be like playing the slots at a casino: just one more quarter. Now I keep worrying about the additional inquiries and drop of AAoA! I miss the garden. I'll pick up some more beer, Pepsi, and tacos on my way

You are so right. I'm wondering if they get more information about spending habits by monitoring thier scorecard than by a single hard pull. Either way, I'm glad to be out of toy limit time-out I'm glad you got a good limit, too!

I have absolutely no direct evidence of it but I was denied for the secured version just before I started using the Scorecard. I noticed on my EQ credit report that I have been SP since then. January I tried the prequal and was preapproved with the solid APR I got when I actually applied: increased scores, no new accounts or HP. I also read through all 100+ pages of the unOfficial Discover thread and anectdotally it seems that people with my range of scores with current toy limits on good accounts seem to be having good luck with approvals and SL. I am certain that I might possibly be correct.
Lol, you said Pepsi
Ps. I do like Pepsi, there are moments i cheat on coke, just dont tell her
