Second that. Definitely a lot of good info on this board.

Welcome to the forum to both of youSmiley Wink

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Garden time? Maybe...

Thanks journey. Any input on my AU question?


I had another question though. I am an AU on account that has about 70% util. How much does that affect my score and possibility of auto CLI? If its bad, can I take myself off as a user. Is that bad?

Starting Score: 620 Current Score: 709 Goal Score: 720
Gardening from 9/28/2013. Target: March 2014

Sorry I missed that being an AU on a card with 70% UTL is not good.

I would recommend you be removed as this will hurt your scores as well as the other person

I don't have an exact answer to your question but one late payment on an AU account, and my scores dropped between 25-30 points. They instantly went back up when it was disputed with the CRAs and deleted.

If you want to be removed as an authorized user, the account holder will need to call and have them remove you. Can you ask them not to carry such high balances?
