This week marks the one year anniversary of the NASA craze here on myFICO. So where are we now?
I managed to get a $25K CC and membership at time of sign up. One year later my CC is now at $30K and I added a PLOC of $20K. I've also received loan offers but am now at their max exposure of $50K unsecured credit so won't be able to take advantage of that.
How are you all doing one year later?

Wow. Got my membership. But will wait for credit. Need to let some of these accounts I have age. And let inqs fall off first.
I still have my $30K Visa and $15K PLOC. In fact, I've amassed over $300 in cash rewards, eagerly anticipating that payout!!
@ Taxi: Good thinking. A well planned strategy can def pay off!!
@ itguy: WOW! You must be making heavy use of it. Did you get their special offer in the mail for added prizes if meeting 500/1000/1500 spend?
No, no special offer! Hmmm...

I still have the card and the credit limit has stayed unchanged (30k). The only activity I put on the card is myfico.com ultimate 3B, which is charged monthly.

I got the mail and was pretty unimpressed with the selection, although I suppose if you use it, $30 payless coupon for $1500 spend is better than nothing (but not a huge incentive!)
I've used it very little but because of "heavy" usage initially on AGC, I also have about $300 coming in Nov

Really? If you don't mind me asking, are you over the 200K mark?

Yup and they said my butt had too much, I'm sorry, "Excessive borrowing capacity,available credit".
ETA: I think wacdenny received the same denial reason.
