Wow @codypendant! You also give me hope. I have 10 INQ'S on TU but only 3 recent. I have 100% on time payments but low AAoA.

Okay! Do you know if I app tonight if I will be able to use it tomorrow or will I have to wait? Also, what if I ask high on the app but that's a no go... will they counter what they'll approve me for?

My AAoA is the minimum (I think it is 1 year for FICO calculations). CK has me at 3 months AAoA.

I originally only asked for 8k. Instantly approved. 48 hours after approval, I called the automated system and asked for a 20k CLI. The system said the max CLI I was eligible for was 6k. So now I have 14k. If you shoot really high like I did, then the system will give you the max you are able to receive from them.

Re: How Many Synchrony Cards Is Too Many?

They should counter... And you should be able to use tomorrow. In the app there's a section I believe that it ask "do you already have a place in mind to use?", you could put it down on the app so the know you're serious. Just make sure the place you're going to accepts care credit first! You can find out on the care credit siteSmiley Happy good luck!!
