Closed on my NFCU mortgage today, while waiting for the keys, I went on a pent up app spree... some data points in this otherwise self-braggy seeming post.
(App) PenFed Personal Loan - $30k @ 7.49% (pulled Equifax) instant approval (this will payoff a recent Discover one that is 4.5% higher)
(App) PenFed Pathfinder - SL $15k @ 16.99% (pulled Equifax) instant approval
(App) PenFed PCR - under review (prolly pushed too hard)
(SP App) BB&T Bright - SL $10.5k (no HP at all)
(App) Discover 2nd card - $3k (may call them and cancel this)
(SP CLI) Discover 1st card $19k - $19.5k
(CLI) NFCU Plat $7500 - under review (asked for $4k to $11.5k, but have a $45k Flagship and another Plat with $24.3k so was hoping they would counter with the $3200 that would take me to their $80k max - will see what they say)
(SP CLI) Wells Fargo $6k -> $7.5k
some stats - Fico8 = EQ 784, TU 785, EX 767, 12 or 13 inquiries on each, most from 2 mortgage rate shopping sessions. Util = 7%
These approvals will put me in the > $300k club CL wise.
Congratulations on your approvals! ....

Since you already took the HP, I would suggest keeping it and taking advantage of the Cashback Match. After having it for a year, you might be able to get a CLI.
Holy Bejeebus OP! You ran the gambit and those are all really good hauls. Congratulations to you!
Congrats on the approvals as well as the increases!
Update 1:
NFCU Plat CLI $7500 -> $10,700 approved (brings total CL to $80k)
Penfed PCR still pending review.
Still haven't decided on the Discover, I'm reading reports they won't combine anymore, and reports they will. I have only ever used my Discover for BT at 0%, never for a charge, so the CB match is something I guess I'll look at - but it doesn't seem worth the effort as compared to hitting a boost threshold on my Delta Reserve. This is especially true with a SL of $3k, as that basically means I can use $300 of the line without having to recycle it.
Congrats on your Closing of your Home in addition to your Multiple Approvals & CLI's 🎉👍





🎊🎉. Congratulations all around! 😊
