US Bank likes me, Cash Plus approved

Thanks to everyone who responded to my earlier thread on USB Cash Plus vs. Paypal CB.  I was going to apply for one of those two this spring, but the supreme court recently changed sales tax laws.  Now online retailers would have to take sales tax.  I made my spring application for the B&H Payboo store card since it would rebate that sales tax.  Now fast foward to this November.  I was feeling I should just go ahead and go for the US Bank Cash Plus.  I got the 7-10 message like many others, but didn't panic.  They were probably manually reviewing it.  And I got the approval e-mail four days later!  Pretty sweet.  My starting limit is a nice $4300.  Which beats my current Disco's $2500.  I recently tried a Disco CLI, and they denied me.  lol.  But in any case, thank you US Bank.  I am definitely going to hit up the utilities, and internet cashback categories.  And I have no prior relationship with US Bank, so this is esepcially kind of nice!  I will still use Disco for the rotating categories, but US Bank is going to get more business from me, and might start being my reporting card for AZEO.

Re: US Bank likes me, Cash Plus approved

Did I read that right? Is that $17K income? I actually haven't seen too many DPs on US Bank with low income so if so, it's good to see that I just need to garden to get them to approve this card (I'm at $18K). 

Congrats! I have taken two HPs for two no's this year 😂

Yes, I am a part timer.  I was worried too that it would be too low, but hey.  They like good scores, and utilzation apparently!  I would definitely take a shot when you're out of the garden.

Thanks! 

I will definitely take a shot again if I can manage to keep myself in the garden. I haven't had the best track record with that so far. 😅

Re: US Bank likes me, Cash Plus approved

very good limit from us bank with 18k.. People on this forum 800 scores and 200k+ incomes get 500 dollar approvals lol then have to recon and plead.  You did well..
