Re: FNBO approval....I can't believe it!!!

Congrats snowkitty,


BUT, I really think you should hit the garden now. I've read/been a part of all of your threads about apping and you must have opened 11 or 12 accounts in the past month or two. I don't want you to start getting hit with AA for too many new accounts by anyone, nor do I want you to end up just getting addicted and sending in new appa every day and end up over your head.


Congrats, Good Luck, Use It Well.

I never applied for amex because I thought they were out of my league right now. What I have really been wanting is the chase freedom but I thought there would be no chance of that either. Maybe I have been eligible for better cards than I thought??

Why didn't you try for a real Amex?




I cannot believe your fico score has not been hammered by now with all the new cards. I swear to gawd if you go for the real Amex and get approved, I am applying now instead of waiting until March ..lol!!!

 

Congrats!

Re: FNBO approval....I can't believe it!!!

Thanks for the congrats everyone! I really am going into the garden to stay now. I was determined to garden but honestly, getting that preapproval in the mail was just too much temptation for me. I kept laying it to the side but it was all I could think about and it consumed me. I do not regret getting the card because I honestly believe that it will help take the credit limits on the my other cards to where I want them to be. But, I will be stronger when the next preapproval comes in. I have a good array of cards and they all serve a purpose for me. Cat Happy
