Big News from my App Spree

Well, after the excitement of getting the initial approval for my BCP, I forgot to call about the terms of my account. Yesterday I received a letter from Amex welcoming me and giving me notice that my application was approved. I didn't get it until today because I was away visiting family. Anyway, the letter also included my EX FICO score! It is presumably because I didn't get the best interest rate available, but that's fine by me because my EX FICO score is:

 

780!!!!

 

All of my card approvals were based off of my EX report, so this is huge news to me since my EQ FICO is only 754. I will probably call tomorrow morning to find out what the terms of my BCP are, but I know that I got the best terms available on the Chase Freedom. I will also call Citi to discuss the terms on my Forward. I love that all 3 pulled EX since the score is higher. This may be the last time I ever receive my EX FICO score, so this is huge for me


In My Wallet: Amex BCP (12/12) $50,000, Chase Freedom (12/12) $16,500, Cap1 Quicksilver (6/12) $14,000, Barclaycard Rewards (5/13) $10,500, Citi Prestige (4/16) $30,000

I'd say from a lender pull.

Forgot about psecu. Rarely hear about them anymore ever since they tightened up the membership requirements.

Re: Big News from my App Spree

Who knows? - maybe iPeaches has discovered a completely new way to get the EX FICO. This is why I ask. If nothing else, it would be good to know which lender pulled and reported the score. I'm all about trying to find as much information as possible for the use of others.
