Navy Fed Platinum - 11k (transferred 1.8 off of the Costco card to Navy @ 0 percent)
Apple Card - 4K
Discover Cash It - 5K
Prime denied because I forgot about the Chase rule (this was the first one I applied for last night)
Also last month, Bucketed QS was able to CLI to 3k last year and my wife's to 2.9 finally after being stuck at 600 forever. So hang in there. Those were our first products after BK so about 2.5 years total to get to where we wanted with those
Looking at one more to add to my collection today before I go back into the garden for the indefinite future but this was a thrillCongrats!
Were you discharged in 2021 or 2020? I was trying to figure out the "2.5 years" comment.
Very nice, congratulations!
Congrats on the approvals!
Congratulations! I'm jealous.
Looking at one more? Curious minds want to know!!! Let us know....
CONGRATS !!!!!!

Maybe - I called Prime card today to inquire about the reson for denial, and I got a message saying that app is under review and to wait 7-10 days? Prime Card is a huge goal card for us since we use Amazon a lot so that would be huge

Please do report back on the reason Chase gives you. From everything I've read the past few years, Chase will not approve you if there is a BK on file, so 10 years from filing on a Chapter 7. Keep in mind that if they do list their reason as the 5/24 rule, that may not be the only one. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for you, but I will be curious what happens. Best of luck.
WooHoo!! Congratulations on your Approvals!!👏🏼🍾🥂
The denial reason was confirmed to be the Bankruptcy. However, I was able to reach a helpful supervisor who heard my case for reconsideration. She submit it for further review, which she said should take about 1-2 weeks. That's better than the hard no I got.
