So my credit journey has been going straight to the top. Started with a $200 secured card from Capital One on a $49 deposit last July. They gave me $500 unsecured. Triple app'ed and got approved in February for a Quicksilver One $500, Amex Every Day $2000 (60 day 3x CLI to $6000 was approved), and Discover it $1250. Got an Overstock store card on a soft pull with the "shopping cart trick" in March, $2400. Got pre-approved in branch for a Chase Freedom and pulled the trigger, approved, $2200 limit at the end of April. I've been pestering Capital One via online chat to PC my very new Quicksilver One to a regular Quicksilver, since I don't want that annual fee, and keep getting turned down. I just tried again today, and noticed that "Love button" as you guys here call it, and decided what the hell, why not? Bam! Increase from $500 to $1500, and STILL ON CREDIT STEPS. My third statement cuts tomorrow. I wonder what will happen when I get my "increase to $750" later this year? Anyway, don't fear the love button.
