NFCU Instant $10,000 Approval!

So I finally get my father to go to the branch with me since he is retired from the army. 

 

We sit  down and I get the regular approval.  Give them my $5.00 Savings deposit and the young lady says. "Look's like you are pre-approved for a Cash Rewards Visa, would you like to apply".  Me being me I said, why not.  Sure, I didn't know any of my scores, util or anything and I asked her, "If I am not approved, can I re-apply"  Se came back... You won't have to, you have been approved for a "$10,000" credit limit.  I almost kissed her.

 

This is the highest limit ever.  They pulled EQ and TU i am in GA.

 

Thanks MYFICO - will update on the scores when I pull them!

My Other cards are

1. Cap 1 - $3,000 Limit - 98% Util - Secured

2. Cap 1 - $3,000 Limit - 98% Util - Secured

3. Cap 1 - $2,000 Limit - 20% Util - Unsecured

 

I am paying them all to less than 10% tomorrow,  which is after my cards post to the cra so thats why I was very shocked about the approval. I knew better, based on my cu that I shouldn't app, but couldn't say no Smiley Happy.

 

Thanks again!
