United Mileage plus approved!

KAISMOM · ‎02-14-2014

I've been gardening for 3 months. Tend to be conservative with apps in general, but since I'll be doing a bit of travelling soon, and already have united miles accrued, I apped and was approved today for 15k! I should have apped for the business one, the extra benefit being 2 points for certain categories, but since I plan on apping for Chase business ink down the line, I guess I'll wait.

On a side note: I'm tempted to app for one more now. Cards I'm considering: Freedom, CSP, Chase ink, Alaska Air. Since United is a chase card, maybe I need to wait?

Congrats nice card

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Thanks everyone! I guess gardening, (no more than 3 apps a year) and improving my fico score is really paying off

Guess I'll be gardening till the fall!! Well almost, as I may need to buy or lease a car this summer, all the more reason to hold off on any apps.
