No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I would have figured that my scores would have tanked - that's what I actually was figuring, But, I knew that if I PIF, or carry a small balance that they would recover in a short period of time. But, anyway. I had NO credit history at all in 4/15. Added as an AU, and then opened a secured card in 9/14 after I was declined for a unsecured card by Discover and Barclays. (I should have started readin the MF forums first though)
I apped for the ChevronTexaco card the 1st week of February,
Capital One AU on my fathers MC 04/15

Thanks!
Hopefully I can resist any further temptations..
congrats on your sucess!
your approvals look a little bit similiar to how I apped for credit in 2014/2015.
I would keep those cards at low utilizations and try your hardest to garden for 6 months.
In 6 months time you would probably be built up for some strong approvals.
Thx
Im thinking in 6-12 months, I'll get rid of the PPMC, Gas cards, and a few others... and see what preapproveds I get targeted for.
Congrats on your success!! Now, you need to relax and enjoy them ...
Good job of rebuilding. Now just treat them well and good things can happen.
Congrats
