Apply... Don't... Apply... Don't... NO!

I want to apply for a GE Card!!

BUT... If I'm actually thinking about it, I only want an Ebates card... I MEAN REALLY WANT... it would be PERFECT... literally would be best fit since I was declined for the Chase Amazon and was declined Sallie Mae, Ebates is next best for both!

*BLEEP** YOU... don't do that to me!

I think I actually have another week to wait before I can try Ebates again if I'm going to do that Smiley Tongue

I did have EVERYTHING related to my BK deleted today including 4 other accounts that were not good but had kind of a blank sort of reporting Smiley Tongue

I think in total it was 9 things deleted... bringing my TU to a 675 according to LendingClub and Burbank City CU today.

 

However what still remains is my 6 settled GE accounts ranging from March 2013-June 2013... I'm thinking I might see better results after they have aged a full year all of them.

AND my 120 and 150 day late reporting on my 3 Target Cards, also ending in June 2013 and 1 settled Target in June 2013.

Those are the baddies left that can't get any better unless deleted and I have tried GW about 6 times now Smiley Tongue

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?
