I applied for the Virgin America last night and got approved for the Visa Signature Version being the black card ($49) AF version of the card. Instant Approval.. Had the SCT, but just did the regular application. I was expecting a higher approval amount, but it will work. Did this for a few reasons. I am dumping my JCREW this month and wanted something to fill the void for utilization, etc.. I won't have any store cards anymore unless you include CareCredit, but I find CareCredit to be an awesome card due to 0% stuff.
So far it appears to be a SP, as I see I was hit on Experian yesterday with a SP from them.. Maybe EQ is lagging behind, will find out and update. Expecting a HP and hoping for a SP.
So with that said. I got the Mid Tier being Tier 2 Visa Signature version at $5500.
UPDATE: Did get hit with an EQ HP! Just so I don't misguide people!

Looks like you did it again LOL. Congratulations CreditCuriousity on your VA approval - very nice SL!! If they only flew or had a presence where I live, then I would certainly consider it.

Thanks Finstar.. I think they are expanding or know that they are, where is to be decided and probably only they know. I just saw about 5 more cities they fly to added recently. They don't fly out of Nashville YET, but somhow I bet that is on their next routes to be added as basically it is the "Vegas" of the south with all the damn tourist and bridal showers/barclor parties we get here, but if not will use the miles for another trip via Virgin Australia planned in the future.. Thinking about picking up the Amex PRG while not many bonuses are going on so I can get up to 180kMR's after that bonus is met. Trying to set myself up for a very nice trip somewhere for free between airlines and hotels other than just spending is my goal... The 10k is just a buffer

You will get there as we all have it just takes alot of time and patience in either building or rebuilding! It pays off in the end.. To think Nov 2013 I had approx. 4k credit.. Now around 120k credit.. This is what happens when you get your reports alot cleaner if you are rebuilding. It happens very quickly once it does happen! Keep up the faith and hard work and it will come!
