Super excited! After being blackballed by Chex and EWS and forced to use BBVA compass, were just approved for a Penfed checking and savings account, along with a $500 LOC for overdraft! Also got a Cap1 Qs1($300), LendUp Arrow($500), and Merrick Bank Visa($700, double to $1400 in 7 months). So far only 1 EQ hard pull has showed up. This is a huge step in the right direction for us!

I'd also like to know why...

But OP, that is great that your rebuild is coming along.

Congratulations on PenFed checking account. They seem to be one of the few credit unions that offer full package. Their service has always been excellent too.
