Re: Which card is easy to get approved? Pls help

I know you won't listen to me but I would pay down your cards first. If you can't afford to pay down current credit, then more credit just makes things worse. Eventually you'll just be paying interest and half principle. I hate to sound like a fuddy duddy, but I think some truth is in order.

well I've been down that road, and it sucks. When credit card money doesn't feel like real money, bad things happen. Good luck in whatever you do.

FAKO scores (like the one you get from Experian) are pretty much total nonsense anyway. It's unfortunate that they're the only ones we can get easily for EX, but it doesn't make it any less useless. Since they don't use the same FICO scoring model, they really don't give you a real idea of what your score looks like to creditors.

Re: Which card is easy to get approved? Pls help

Hey guys, i never applied for the barclay and walmart card. Im afraid im not gonna get approve.
Cos both my cards have high util. About 75% on both. 1 card will be 2 yrs on feb 2012 and my ohther one is only 5mos old.
My FICO EQ score is only 657.

Do i still get a chance of getting approve for a new card?
I wanna get one to transfer balance with low interest. To lower the util on my 2 cards.

I got 7 inqs on my EQ and 2 on TU and 5 on EX
