NFCU: love at first sight

Hi All!

First, thank you for all of the useful info I've found here! I joined NFCU over the weekend and after a few issues with my verifications, I'm finally up and running.

Opened a savings with $5 and a checking; walked out of the branch with my debit card. When I got home I said "why not?" and took a shot at a Go Rewards CC. Went to 24 hour review and decided it was declined. Believe my shock when I got the approval message for $1600! I literally have been declined everywhere and just started my rebuild today.

I can't believe this!

I'm just thrilled! I originally went to Chase for the new account bonus, but the banker made me feel useless.

And I'm not sure if this info is correct, but the manager at my NFCU branch said even though they do a HP for each product, if it's all within 30 days from the same institution, it shouldn't hurt my credit score. And if it does, they have a rubric they use to add to the score if they know it's their inquiries causing a drop.

I just want to add, I opened this account yesterday and applied for my CC around 1100. I paid for expedited shipping, thinking I'd never get approved or that it would take 30 days.

FedEx just delivered my card and it hasn't even been 24 hours. It's only 0830 here. I am stunned!

Congratulations and welcome to the forums and to Navy!  Treat it well and it will grow with you.  If you haven't found it already, here's the link to the big thread on CLIs: http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Navy-Federal-Thread-for-CLI-and-Additional-...

 

It's a long read (so grab some coffee first). If you don't want to ready the entire thread, read the first post and then the last 10 or so pages.

 

Again, congrats! Smiley Happy
