My First Prime Credit Card

Been rebuilding my credit, slowly but surely, all the way from 433. (It used to be even lower at one point, if you can believe that.) One of the suprime cards I had, was the Indigo, with a $300 credit limit. I got that one officially closed now that my credit is above 700. I plan on dropping one subprime credit card every six months, and applying for a prime one instead. Today I was approved for the Chase Freedom Unlimited with a credit limit of $6,200. I feel so accomplished. I've been so ashamed of my credit for so long. Just gotta keep growing my garden. Heart Don't lose faith.
