From my stepdad's experience, once you're in First Premier's radar, you'll never escape the pre-approvals. And, in his case, every time he checks online pre-quals, it seems he gets yet another pre-approval in the mail. Since he had an account before, I honestly believe that they might have something in their system that sets off when a previous 'customer' (victim, more like...) is looking for credit, so that they can get on them again...


Hah ha. He has a very good point. After i landed and established solid credit with a variety of Prime Lenders ole FirstPremier stop sending preapprovals in THAT name and instead every once in a blue moon float one to my mailbox with an entirely new name but same tactics, same offer, and same STATE! that sticks out like a sore thumb right there on the front of the envelope Smiley Very Happy

Please don't do it.  Why waste a HP on foolishness. 

Thank you for the wealth of knowledge I have learned from these forums. I am logging off as of November 9, 2022. I wish everyone great success.

Thanks for your feedback and nice comments guys I really appreciate it. What bothers me is credit one also keeps sending me pre approved mail as well "your preapproved for a credit line up of $1500". I only recive pre approvals from only first premier and credit one why doesn't any other bank like citi and other major banks do that (than I won't mind at all). Ughh that's why I was thinking if I still only qualify for these two cards with these insane fees credit one and first premier

Do not simply respond to offers.  Select cards that suit your needs/wants.  Don't let a creditor's marketing department decide for you.

Don't assume.  I have 35,000 avail credit (highest being 10k Venture), car loan and deferred student loans (avg Fico of 700).  Speaking to OP, I received a "pre-approved" 1st Premiere in the mail today, and dang it took me a whole 15 minutes to find my scissors.

YOU have a much more glorious resume than their requirements.

 

They -subprime- attack at dawn.  

 

Do a Lannister - game of thrones - uppity sneer as you tear their mailers into the trash. It's kinda empowering and satisfiying.

My other favorite is the loan with Rocky running up the stairs if you sign up for a loan in the seventies you might have paid it off by now
