USAA... I want to cry!

So I've been waiting for the 7 to 10 days letter from USAA thinking what did I do...  wasted a HP on a whim.  Instead just now I got an email about "my new card" and logged in to read "Congratulations!", and a $4k line on a USAA Rewards Plat MC, my biggest credit line!  I got teary when I saw that, expecting $150 or the like...  I know I've made huge progress and deserve it but didn't expect it.

 

I feel indebted to you all.  Thanks to all the other myFICO board addicts and helpful people here!!  I'm off to faint.  Smiley Happy

Congrats on a well deserved accomplishment. Can I ask a few particulars?  Do you have any baddies on your credit? What did USAA ask for ie proof of address, pay stubs,did you have to open up a saving/checking to get their credit card, are you a full member?

 

Thanks!

Nice!  Enjoy your new highfalutin' status. Smiley Wink

 

Seriously, it's great to get in good with USAA that way.   You should be proud, and you worked for it, too!
