First Premier and Credit One still send me stuff weekly. Goes straight to the shredder.

Congrats on Discover!  I started rebuilding, and was getting the awesome personal loan letter, and the predatory lender letters for a while.  Then, a few weeks ago, I got the CitiBank Double Cash "pre" letter. 

 

Good luck to you!!  Cap1 Pre-approvals are (onine) are about 90% reliable too....if you are still looking for any credit.

Look at my scores and look at my cards - 

 

I was preapproved for the two Cap 1 cards, was not pre approved for citi and got a $3500 SL.

 

Just because you are not preapproved does not mean you will not be approved.

 

Do the Cap 1 preqaul site, once for rebulding, once for good and once for excellent. If anything comes up, go for it!

 

I went from a $500 secured card to what you see in my sig in a 5 month time span. My only regret is opening those "shopping cart trick" cards, and applying for QS1 instead of QS.

Sorry for bringing this thread back up but after a year and a half of rebuilding and current scores in the 650s for all 3...i received a preapproved offer from first premiere with a credit limit of 700$ with a 175$ annual fee!!

So frustrated right now..not that i am in need of any new credit right now but just seeing this disheartens me...hope in the next 6 months to a year i start getting preapprovals for slightly better cards.
