Well, not everything I guess.  But enough to hold me over for a loooong time.

For the record, I saw today that BofA only pulled EX on me.  There have been lots of reports lately of them pulling both EX and TU, but for me it was only EX.

Thanks, concord.  And yep, I agree.  Although I'm not sure it was a spree.  Just two apps in seven days. Smiley Happy

EX has gone from 712 to 741 in the last couple of weeks, due to getting util down to 1% with only two accounts with balances.  I thought it was time to strike while the iron was hot.
 
I got the BofA Amex tonight.  Instant approval for $2500.  A little low, but this is without the new $15K CL from WaMu reporting.  I plan to wait to activate the BofA card until after WaMu reports, and request a CLI on activation, pointing out my $15K CL with another lender and couching my request in terms of what BofA can do for me in that respect.
 
I got the 9.99% APR on purchases and 0% on BTs for 12 months.  (Not that I have any Bs to T.)
 
So I'm officially done.  In the last seven days I received two new cards, both of which were intended to accomplish a specific goal, and both of which were accomplished.
 
WaMu for a substantial CL.  Done.
BofA for a prime card with a prime lender and for a card with a concierge service.  Done.
 
Next app: Amex Platinum, January 2009.
 


Yay, Cheddar!!!  Glad you finally got this one you've had your eye on so long!!!  Smiley Happy
 
Hope you get that $15K, too!!
