Re: Duck card approval profiles

Applied Oct.12 for the Duck card. Received Instant Approval. Didn't bother to call and ask CL. Waited it out and finally received a letter  with my credit score on Friday Oct. 18

EQ score of 819. Oldest account is 16 years 10 months old. AAOA is 7 years. My utilization at time of application was 6%. No negatives on any of my CRs

4 INQ on EX, 3 INQ on EQ, 4 on TU. Received the card in the mail today with a $15000 CL and APR is 9.99%

 

 

I'm currently in the rebuilding phase. Just recently applied and was approved for Discover IT ($1500) and Capital One ($300) in August.

 

Debating whether I want to try for the Beaver card too. I may use the card well for a few months just to establish a good relationship with them before trying for the Beaver card.


Starting Score: 540
Current Score: EX 770 EQ 775 TU 794

Re: Duck card approval profiles

Congrats! Thats an excellent limit.

 

None of us have made an attempt at both the Duck and the Beaver.  I think I would be cautious about that since it is a smaller credit union.  Wouldnt want to frighten them.

Re: Duck card approval profiles

Thanks, DiabolicallyRandom. Congrats to you too on the approval and CL. I was just happy with the nice CL. This should help me establish a better credit history. Definitely help with Utilization. Maybe in a few months I can use this credit limit to talk Discover and Capital One into giving me larger CL. Not holding my breath on Capital One.

Re: Duck card approval profiles

Now I am curious about CLI. They seem to be generous with inital CL. This card by far is my largest CL.

Time will tell if they are also generous with  CLI.

Re: Duck card approval profiles

FWIW I was approved with 33% util, however I am high earner.

 

Got congrats instant approval mesasge and says card will arrive 7-10 days (not to be confused with 7-10 day message).

 

My highest CL's are in the 30-50k range so I am interested to see what this one is since I have seen some high lines with people here with less profile than mine Smiley Happy

Re: Duck card approval profiles

Am I way off in concluding that the Duck/Beaver card is best for people with already high scores and the necessary incomes for high initial CL's but who currently don't with other lenders for whatever reason?

Re: Duck card approval profiles

Based on the profiles and CLs and declined, I would say that is accurate. It's probably a good alternative for people who can't get into Navy, to get a cc with high CL. But they need the good credit first.
