Sigh... Cautionary tale, Active Cash Approval

So, I was talking to @K-in-Boston (well, he was talking, he does that a lot) about applications and WF came up (His Amex peeps gonna be sad when they realize cheating happened). 

I tell dudebro to not apply, he will get denied.

Well, he applies and gets $30K. 

Okay, now we feeling" stupid ... But also we're having *hold my 🍺,👛, and🔑 ..I shall not be outdone by that amateur.. 

 

Well, so it happens that I was outdone.

 

Approved for $18,000.00. 

 

On a useless scale (as far as card is concerned) from 0 to Justin Bieber, we're in Celine Dion theritory. 

At least I'm still prettier, funnier, and all that other stuff than KiB. I think. 

 

Whatever, approval is approval, right???

Congratulations on your awesome approval!  You're still a Gold Medal winner in our eyes even if my starting line was 66.6% higher.  I "fake gardened" for the longest time in years to get this notch.  The couple of hundred bucks SUB won't be useless for either of us; we may even be in Bryan Adams territory.  (I'm aware that the Canadian government has apologized on numerous occasions.)

 

As least you got instant karma credit line.  I didn't get that!

Oh, I forgot important parts 

I am not sure if they pull 8 or 9, 8 is 785, 9 is over 800. Single EX pull 

Many new accounts, two most recent ones from November. Have Propel that largely sits unused. Approval for Propel was lower, $12,000 I think.

That's an important distinction.  This was my first WF card.  So $18k+$12k=$30k.  Put that way, we have equality.

Applying for credit cards out of spite is in the spirit of the forum so no worries there 😂

Congrats on the approval, Remi! Not like you're going to apply for anything else in the near future 🤗❤️

Congrats!

 

They give me preapproval splash screen for this everytime I pay mortgage, but I likely won't ever bite. They score they give me is EQ Fico 9, so I guess that is what they use.
