I need a new credit card now... WHO?

Something with at least 1% rewards

not super prime bank, I have them already and probably can't get a 2nd card.

Want it to be Visa or MC to make sure it's always excepted.

Hi Creditaddict,

 

Have you or would you consider a CU as opposed to a bank?  Maybe a local CU?

Re: I need a new credit card now... WHO?

last checked EQ was 642 but since having my EX frozen, I have gotten everyone to pull EQ so I'm not over 12 INQ.

TU has been lagging lower 600's but have not pulled in some time and it has over 10 inq.

 

All my inq from both drop off this year except for like 1-2 on EQ but TU will be clear

Sorry to read about your BofA card (other thread.) Why get another one now? It sounds like you're making progress with your snowballing, and I thought you wrote that you had another one for day-to-day use?
