New Cards

I wanted to get 2 more cards before I start to garden. Applied for the Farmers insurance Visa and the Total Rewards Visa. The Farmers was instant approval--6000 CL and the Total Rewards was 7-10 days. I received the letter Sat. and they wanted verification so I called this morning. After a rather long conversation and verification including what my sign is, approved 9500. They pulled EQ for both. Scores are TU 752-21 inq, EQ 744-20 inq and EX 712-29 inq.   Life is good.

Re: New Cards

Congratulations on your new cards, dannyboy! Total Rewards is a nice card to have as they periodically have 0% balance transfer offers available, which can be helpful. Enjoy your new cards.

Re: New Cards

Wow nice SL's on both especially the Total Rewards. Guess it's safe to say Comenity is not INQ sensitive. Have you tried for a CLI via the LUV button on either one yet. Many members myself included got a bump or two after creating the online accounts and logging in. My TR card was approved for 2K but I immediately was able to bump it to 3.5K. Hoping in another month when I hit the 4 month mark that I can get another CLI on it. Both of those cards should continue growing for you. The TR card should be able to get a SP CLI every 4 months. Not sure on the Farmers.

I set up the Total Rewards account and hit the luv button, increased to 11500. Tried the Farmers and got the 7-10 day notice.  Life is good.
