Amex.,Sears, Chase, etc. apps Approved

HI everyone.  The information from all of you on this board has been so sweet.Smiley Very Happy

 

In about the past 10 days since my mortgage funded and closed I have apped and been approved for all of the cards I wanted to round out my credit profile. 

 

CU $4k Line of credit

Home Depot $15k

Sears Mastercard $10k

Costco Amex $3.5K

Chase Slate $5K althogh was initially denied, but called recon right away.  I was denied for several inquiries most of which were from my mortgage loan.  Was offered $4k, but asked to be reconsidered for $7.5.  A no go, but then offered the $5k. I'LL TAKE ITSmiley Wink

 

Time to hit the garden and let these blossom.  This time last year my credit was in the mid 600's and the low 700's by the time I joined myfico.  Thank you all for all your input  in each of the threads to help me get to where I am now.

Congratulations! Feels good when you see progress being made! 

 

I've been pretty good when it came to knowing credit basics but I've also learned a lot here over the last 6 weeks. Little things here and there add up.

Pozativelyliving Yes, it does feel good.  I am so very excited about the recent approvals.  Before I had mostly GE and store cards. Only one of my limits was above $5k and it was a store card.  I am still trying to absorb it all.

 

All I knew about credit was ... if you pay your bills on time; It will be good.   The things I learned on here over the last few months have put me on the road on how to obtain  a mortgage and excellent credit.  Way too excitedSmiley LOL
