Mini-App Spree Success!

So was able to clear a large part of my credit card debt, but wanted a couple of BT cards to put the rest on 0% APR for a bit

 

I live in PA, just for the credit bureau DPs

 

Approved for NFCU Platinum - $5200 at 14.99%, pulled Transunion

 

Approved for Wells Fargo Reflect - $8000 at 24.99%, pulled Experian

 

Received 7-10 business day message from Citi for the Diamond Preferred (which I really wanted for the initial BT, the CDP offers after BT, and future BTs, but whatever)

 

And since I was pre-approved for it, I went for the Amex Rose Gold using the Resy promo to get 20% back on restaurant purchases (up to $250 back) in the first 12 months. Approved, obviously NPSL for that, they approved using last month's Experian score, so no HP here.

 

Ended up going for 1 more card than I initially intended bc of the Citi response, but this way if Citi rejects my app, I won't really care.

 

Also, took advantage of the AMEX upgrade offer for my EveryDay to get the EveryDay Preferred, 40k MR points for $2k spend in the first 3 months (CSR detailed it as 92 days), so between the EDP and the Rose Gold, looking at 115k bonus MR points for $6k spend

 

Edited for DPs
