Walmart card is okay to carry to get mix credit..I dont need discover card, also I can change Walmart card to discover after 6 months of payment history.
Yes Walmart card is backed by GEMB and Walmart Discover is backed by Discover Financial Services, LLC. So no need to get Discover...They are the same!Message Edited by CreditCard101 on 08-20-2009 08:44 PM
If you change your Walmrt card witht the one backed by Discover, I would go ahead an get the real Discover card. It has better perks.
Actually, it's easier to convert/upgrade through Walmart better than apply for new credit. I dont want another ding on my CR. I promise to myself no more apps for 2-3 years from now, so all my inquiries should ALL fall off by then.
If i get approve for Chase Freedom and AAA, that will be okay too and then NO MORE APPLICATIONS EVER AGAIN..

LOL. I'm doing the same thing. The AMEX inquiry was may last. I only have 2 inquries on my EQ. I have 8 on my Experian. 4 of the 8 falling off this year. My TU has numerous inquires, and its my highest score. Many of the TU inquries will be falling off this year.
Mine is similar but opposite..
i have 5 inquiries with EX, 16 with Equifax, and 7 with TU..
All should FALL off in 1-2 years...
Less inquiries are better..
My next step is to maintain card utilization low as possible and try to get into the FICO 800 Club lol..

I'm shooting for an 800 myself. I think its my AAA thats hindering my efforts. I'm hoping to have it by 7/2010. When do you think you may get to 800?
Well whenever all of my inquiries fall off that should boost alot about 2 years from now..I know it's a long wait lolz..
but its worth it..
