vonniegirl 10 Posted August 9, 2002 Report Share Posted August 9, 2002 Is it me or has anyone else experienced an unusual amount of unsolicited credit card applications, mortgage refinancing, and loan apps now that you are working on improving your credit report?"You're approved" credit cards are all over the place. Why now? Are they fortune tellers are something? Link to post Share on other sites

Swede 15 Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 I didn't vote you off the island! If I were you, I'd ask for procedural description on that one But to answer your question and make you feel more at home - no, I haven't noticed an increase. Link to post Share on other sites
smogtek 10 Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 I've only had one unsolicited offer since I opted out.Not sure how it slipped through the crack, but there was no corresponding inquiry, so it went to the shredder! Link to post Share on other sites
vonniegirl 10 Posted August 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 Thanks guys. It is always nice to feel loved You know sometimes it gets to you, the forums, threads, story after story of how everyone's life has been affected by this monster called credit.Sometimes, it's a good thing to let off steam even if it's in a tame, quiet way. However, I can still fight back with the best of them.Regarding the cards...citi platinum mastercard,annual fees...none APR 9.74; People's Credit First, 12-month 0% then 14.49% oh and a $45.00 processing fee or $49.00 Rush processing.Most have come via e-mail, I usually trash them because I don't need another inquiry on my report.Here's to you the members. Chin up! Link to post Share on other sites
