CC Updates

Cap1- Rec'd my new card today. Standard aqua? with white circle No Hassle. Same account #. Melted my old Starry Night card to destroy it. Called to activate new card, was refreshing to not get hit with sales pitches.

Orchard- re: combine. Rec'd letter. They are asking for income, etc. Looks like a new app. Decided to just keep the two I have rather than go thru the process.

Amex- Itchy finger. Tempted to try the luv. Have had card only 2 months. Plan was to wait 3 months. Undecided. Any advice?

BTW- CCC seem to be spending big bucks on a LOT of adverts. Can't turn the TV on for an hour without getting a few CC adverts. Is it because of holiday season or am I just more aware of them now?

You can try AMEX LUV now. Totally normal to be more observant now that you are "credit aware"

Ha ha- You are both enablers. Paid my Amex $800 bal today before the statement cut. Maybe I'll wait till it shows 0 bal & then try the luv. CL is $2k, what do you think about trying for $5k?

I thought the Orchard combine would be a simple matter, but it is not. Don't want to risk losing $4.25k cl. The older Orchard has a YIKES 23% APR, the newer one is at 12% with 2% CB, so definitely want to hang onto that one.
