NFCU Platinum and HHonors Suprass approved

It has been a great two weeks for me. Approved for CSP for $25.9k a week ago and NFCU Platinum Mastercard at $24k today with an 8.49% APR. I was also approved for the HHonors Amex Surpass, but only at $4k. I was a little disappointed by the Amex SL but after reading the forums I will wait the 61 days and request a 3xCLI. I cancelled the two secured cards I had (Merrick/OpenSky) so I can get my $3k back. Im sure I will take a hit for the 3-4 inquiries and cancelling the only two cards I had for the past two years, but hope that the new CLs will make up for it. Im at 0% utilization currently. These are the only cards I want so I am done cc shopping for the foreseeable future.

Re: NFCU Platinum and HHonors Suprass approved

Thanks..it was a long and hard road wIth an awesome payoff. I was really surprised to get the CSP with a sl of $26k considering that my two rebuilders only had $1600 and $2100. I thought canceling them would drop my FICO temporarily since they were the only two cards I had and it would affect my history length.

Haha..hilarious! My profile/FICO was fed a chapter 13 that finally digested and isn't reporting any more. While the SLs were exciting, it was the low apr on the NFCU card that was the icing on the cake. With no balance transfer fees I can get my points on the other cards and transfer any balances I want to carry for a few months to the NFCU card and cut the interest in half. Feeling pretty blessed.

Congrats.  I'm thinking about the Hilton Surpass, also.
