NFCU Success

So, thanks to this forum I found a legitimate way into NFCU.  Sent my membership documents and supporting documentation in and had an approval e-mail from membership a couple days later.  Called up and got my membership number and funded the account on the phone.

 

After researching scores i decided to bite the bullet and apply for a Cash Rewards CC and the CLOC, as I hear they pull EQ and I really have limited recen pull activity on that bureau, other than the pull for my DCU Membership.  CLOC instantly approved and the credit card went into review.  I decided to be preemptive and sent over my paystubs and past year W-2 to support my income via secure message, even though they did not ask.

 

My credit report is far from clean.  I sit at a EQ08 of 699 and even lower for the EQ05 score.  I have numerous old lates (2 to 4 years in the past, some 90s) that permanently pull down my score.  Sad that a BK score can climb so much in two years but heaven forbid you have a late payment, you are tainted for life by FICO (or at least 7 years Smiley Wink).  Although I would not want anyone paying me late either, I'd much rather have my money late than not at all, but such is the world of FICO.

 

Last night I got the approval email for the credit card as well.

 

Cash Rewards Visa Signature $15K at 9.9%

CLOC at $15K

 

Will hit them up at the end of the summer and hopefully take the card to the full SP $25K.

 

I'm very happy with the experience!  Thank you everyone for the information you have shared in the forum.

Re: NFCU Success

Congrats they are a awesome credit union. I also have the cloc and cash rewards both setting at 15k each. My cash rewards started at 3k 3 months ago and got it up very quickly. I'm waiting on my next AR which should be in June.
