Congrats actually like my BMO card actually thought I was just getting for bonus, but using it for cable/internet/streaming bills now.  Enjoy and congrats on the approvals


Thanks!

I've been using my Usbank Cash+ for cable but will use the BMO card now for that.

I've been getting mailers from BoA for their Platinum Plus card lately, so last weekend I applied using their invitation code. Now this coming off of two cli on my Custom Cash Rewards card, $7k and $8k so now a limit of $25k, in the past 5 weeks. Even though I've had that card and a savings acct with them for the past two years, I wasn't too optimistic.
I hoped the mailer code would help though. 
Instant approval for $10k 🙂
EX was pulled, my inqs before this was 2/3 5/12 and new accts 1/3 4/12. 
The next day I read here that someone was approved for 2 BoA cards with the same pull within a few days. I did have a "special offer" for their Unlimited Cash Rewards Visa 🤔 So I froze all three bureaus and app'ed for that card
Instant approval for $15k 😳 
So two new BoA cards, $25k between them both, with one HP in 2 days. 
Since I'll be looking at a long stay in the garden I figured I'd go for one more card 🤦‍♂️
With my TU having 1 inq in 24 months I went for the BMO Harris Cash Back MC.
With little expectations I did a cold app. After like 45 secs of submitting, it went pending. So I felt it was definitely a denial.
Well 4 days later I got a nice email from BMO.  
Woo Hoo. Dont know the CL but very happy it wasn't a denial as I have no relationship with them at all. 
So with these 3 new accounts, plus new my First Tech MC from two weeks ago, I'm off to the Garden for at least a year and a half. 
If there are additional data points that I can provide, just let me know. 
Congratulations on your new approvals. Your posts about First Tech inspired me to finally apply. Guess we both are in the garden a while. Enjoy 

Thanks! Yep Gardenjng for a long while. 😁 And glad to have helped with First Tech.

Thanks and yes your post is what set me in the two-fer direction with BoA.  So glad you shared that experience or else I'd never have known to try.  So thank you for that!
