Re: PayPal Mastercard Approval! - myFICO® Forums

Hi everyone!

In a previous post I mentioned eyeing the Citi DC card, but some fellow MF's recommended the PayPal MC for 2% CB.

I honestly didn't pay much attention to this card, nor the perks until they were pointed out to me. WOW...it really IS a nice card to have in your wallet

I did some research on it, and figured why not?

I just went for it: APPROVED $6K SL!!!😁

TU was pulled. My score likely dipped from 713ish, since my utilization has gone up from 14% to 17% over the past week.

**EDIT**
Every 30ish days for the past few months I've hit the luv button, and my Victoria's Secret card has grown from $1500 to $3500 as of today!! 😁 Time to grab something sexiii!! 😋

Merry Christmas to me! Happy Holidays to all!! 😁

Congratulations @iamdertimed 👏🏾 Very nice SL!

It's funny that you just pulled the trigger! We talked about that what 2 weeks ago? Just this morning I was re-reading that original post, and wondered if you went with our suggestion.

Glad you did , and more importantly, glad it was an approval 😂 Merry Christmas!
