Hello Everyone, this is my first post but figured i'd share my success story. A few years ago my wife and I were looking in to building our first house, so we had to start looking in to our credit. Got some things cleaned up and Last yr applied through a creditone bank pre approval card, got a 300 dollar cl on it. (sidebar we did a pre-approval once for our house purchase and was approved did it again and all of a sudden i had no scores reporting so this card was right on time in August when we got the card) it starts reporting we do little purchases like groceries here and there. Fast forward a few months we close on our house 12/30/2015 Brand new built from the ground up yay!. So shoutout to credit one for helping start that journey, as everybody knows though im sure they have high rates and also annual fees so i have been wanting to get a different CC now that ive had that one for over a year. with creditone cc i have gotten two small CLI one up to 500 another up to 750 and thats what its at today. Back in I believe it was May or June i applied for a lowes cc. Got approved same day 1500.00 cl nice i can buy some things around our new house and its also going to help me when i finish my basement later this yr. On to yesterday and the subject of the post. Probably for a month now i have been getting chase, capital one and discover card offers. just about 2 come a week it seemed like. Family is going on vacation next month to washington DC so i figured id go ahead and see if i could add another card to the wallet. deciding between the three discover IT had the best benefits longest term of no apr and lowest APR after term of 0% was up so i applied yesterday. Oh quick backstory on that, i had to buy some things on my credit one bank card so i actually had maxed it out for a second, paid off most of that and shoutout to myfico for tracking that the moment that payment posted is what i was waiting for to apply for a new card, which happened to be yesterday. I go through the discover website with the invitation # they give and im APPROVED!! woohoo. 5,500.00 CL at that. I want to give multiple thanks to all the people that have reviewed and left summaries and approval stories for the discover it card, it seems like a great card to have. A little leary about all the places that do...or should i say maybe dont, accept discover ut 9.3 million merchants or so do so hopefully i dont run in to anything major not taking it :-)
Thanks again!
