From the data I provided what do you think ? None of the current collections are chase or Amex. Current scores are floating between 600 to 618
I know this isn’t the answer that you want to hear but none of us can know for sure one way or the other. 6-9 months is a long time in the credit world and a lot can happen to your profile and/or scores in the meantime. You need to get your scores >650 to have any reasonable chance and I’d be working hard on PFD requests with Portfolio and Midland. Not sure how receptive they are to those requests but the Rebuilding Your Credit forum is a good resource for that. I think once your scores are above 650 you’ll have a little easier time getting in with Amex than Chase if those charge offs are still showing. You also need to attempt to get some higher revolving limits than $300 before trying with Chase. The auto and personal loans are good for your credit overall but CC companies really are looking for experience with revolving accounts over installment ones. Good luck when you do try.
Have contacted any of the 4 about PFD? With 4 open baddies it will be dificult. Scores need to come up some more. Limits are kind of low for Amex.
