There are so many CC products I'm sure there are even more I had no idea existed, so, I would love the community to chime in on helping me decide. However, certain restrictions apply Smiley Very Happy

 

  1. No non-VISA or MC retail/store cards: Already have Lowes and Sams club which is enough
  2. No NFCU - no military affiliation to gain membership
  3. No NASA - Closed out my membership earlier this year. They seem to not have their ish in order
  4. No CUs - unless it;s super easy to setup and they are incredibly generous with initial CLs
  5. No Chase products - they simply do not like me and 3x return the feelings
  6. No Barclaycard products - 1 product is enough. I would let their CLD henchmen screw me over
  7. No Synchrony - only because I'm pretty sure you have to be well north of 700 on TU to get any of their MC products
  8. No US Bank - too conservative
  9. No BofA - thanks to my ex and a paid CO from 2014.

 

 

Must be a VISA or MC cards only - related to first line item

 

Ok community, bring the suggestion on!!

 


I don't really think you need another card, but it seems to me that you would benefit from a cash back card like the Cap One Quicksilver if you wanted to add something.

 

I happen to enjoy the Barclay Rewards card, too, but I see that you don't want another Barclays product.

Cabella's?  Although probably only a $4-5k starting CL.  


I'm sub 700 on EQ so that'll be tough I think


Cabella's is probably one of the easiest cards to get approved for... Although how useful it would be with your current line-up is questionable.   People with EQ's in the 630's are getting approved..  I am not a hunter so no need and also another EQ inquiry which I have plenty of already!   Although just another bank in your pocket if you want to diversify

I must ask this question since I don't see it asked already.  What are you looking for this card to do for you?  Looking at your line-up, you seem very solid with your current cards.


Diversity, honestly. Since I am not apping in 2016 or aftertime afterwards, I'm also looking for a solid line-up and focusing on growth only.


Your lineup looks very diversified.  Another card won't make a difference really. If the goal is not to apply for anything in 2016, then a very good goal.  During that time, new cards will/may come out for you to apply for in 2017 if you so wish.

 

But if I were in your shoes, I'd stay put with the current line up of cards.

This is exactly what you need to do.  You just got a very good card in the Prestige.  You also had a year that included AA from a major bank.  Enjoy what you have and garden for quite awhile.

I agree with everyone.  One more card won't make a difference.  Stay put and work on CLIs and let your scores and credit profile age...

Man, I'd scratch that itch so that gardening for a year would be more tolerable.

How about a FNBO product?

Any cash back cards? Although I may stay put but as I originally sated, I also would like to know what's out there.
