I asked the rep which bureaus they would pull from and if a BK7 would automatically disqualify me (I was discharged 14 months ago). After being put on hold to get these answers, the rep came back and told me they could pull from either TU or EQ. Since EX is my worst score, I knew a had a chance at approval. My TU and EQ are at 670, but my EX is at 620 due to a judgement. All three reports have my BK7 reported but the rep didn't think it was a factor. Strictly score. I gave them approval to start the app and pull my credit. I was approved with a $3500 CL at 8.99% for purchases and balance transfers. My goal was to get a card with at least $2K CL to transfer $1K of balance from other high-interest cards. I now have 1 card (Juniper at 38% util and the other three crappy cards at less than 10% utilization). Much better than the three crappy cards with nearly 90% utilization on each. I'm thinking this should help my score. If you have a good TU or EQ score, Juniper seems to be a good choice. I had to ask twice about the CL they gave me because the other three crappy cards would only give me a $600 limit (granted, I was only 4 months out of discharge when I applied for those).Good luck and thank you for all the great advice in this forum.Mike
