Followed this forums for 2 years and so far this is all the information i have on all my accounts

Thank you everyone for all the help and info i have been given through these forums i would like to say i started my credit journey 2 years ago had a stupid low score because of never have any credit besis multiple failed attempts at bofa secured card kept denying me years ago and so ill start now with the important info btw any info future advice recommendations please let me know all opinions welcome
Ssfcu; first account had secured credit card 500 limit for 1.8 yearrrs whi h i cancelled because they do not graduate your cards so i cancelled that but at the same time i had also done a secured installment loan for 500 over 6 months
Fast forward a coulple months back i decided to apply for a real credit card with them and after research decided to go all in and applied for a credit card got 1k at the same time a ploc for 13.3k at 10& both i use regularly love tthe line of credit was unexpected. Funny part is rbfcu which ill get into later
Credit one sadface you read right lol so far my oldest active account at 2k 0 utilization no fee had waived use it every 2 months maybe 3 looking to get rid of it very soon after it hits 3 years forever to the sd
Macys another way for me to begin building my credit when i applied for this i was given 750 for my credit limit didnt use or think much of it made mom a au she spends maybe 100 a month always payed in full fiest cli was to 1k then i was like well they keep doing it so go all in from there i went to 3k 7k and now planted at 16k a month ago for some reason after 7k online wouldnt work had to call. 1.6 years.
Added cap one to the mix with a 500 dollar quick silver the badcredit one which took a whole bunch of time to get to 1750 so i applied for my current qs which i after combining the two i feel very unsure if thats what should jave been done my remaining card is at 2.5k really want a venture card but not showing any preapproval so not applying plus noncard is 3 years old..side note i did get added as a au on parents chase card only 500 limit but 14plus years old

Chase was preapproved at 8 months from first credit card for chase sap 450 annual fee i did not take it instead got a chase slate because at one point i thought hey more accounts means established relationships with banks and padding to credit history so i got approved for 500 chase slate a month later the csp/csr was gone but got two more being cfu and cf for 1.5 and 1k sadly tried for a cli pulled me three times was denied done tried merginf and was told cant be used same old spiel but just waiting to move what i can over to one card see if that may show mew offers or something since i no longer have any at all from them

Rbfcu who im excited about this month instantly approved me for 13.3k as a credit card at 9% and a ploc for 5k at 8.9% auto loan for 15k 36 months at 3.9% and they just have me all giddy they have been good to me
Also to mention i forgot i do have a tv from conns thats 24 months it'll be paid off soon
My utilization got bad for two months at about 3k max was barley 5k at the time whoch i quickly recovered from as of now my utilization has been teetering on 0% to 4% my average age of accounts is at 1.8 years but am a au on parents chase that is 14+years old i myself am 22 make 28k a year and my total avail credit as told by cct is at 57 or 47 k will edit because ,right now my rbfcu ploc isnt showing up but my cc is so we will see. How that pans out if anyone has any kind of advice for menplease by all means shoot

At 22 yrs, all looks good.

The low limits from chase and denials from others is because you NEED to GARDEN

take a break from it all and let all the account natually age and they will grow over time.   

 

You do not really need anything else for now. 

and your scores are actually really good with decent thin but growing file.

 

You have the cards there, use them when needed and pay in full (PIF)

try your best to not pay any interest and let YOUR credit work for you!

Do not make any mistakes or habits of charging your cards for junk or 

items not necessary.  That way you will not become a slave to the payments and interest.

 

Good luck with your credit, again it is looking good!!!

We must live near each other (I'm in New Braunfels.) I really love my local SSFCU branch, but have had a few problems with RBFCU. Congratulations on your successful journey! I agree -- it's time to garden.
