iscrewedupbig Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 I was approved for the following cards today:Target Visa $500 limit (applied for the Red Card; may ask for a CLI on activation). Pulled EQ (FICO of 711).Hooters MC (unsure of CL); pulled TU (FAKO of 688).Student CC via my Credit Union, serviced by ELAN Financial (pulled EX). $1000 limit. (FAKO was 704).I'm at a loss for words...I am also awaiting the arrival of my Orchard Bank Silver card (I'm going to call them once I get it and ask if I qualify for any of their higher up cards; if I don't, then I'm just going to cancel it as the other cards have no annual fees...side note; does anyone know if they'll refund the processing fee if I do this?)I also have a Discover card still being processed (pulled TU) and was denied for the Blue for Students AMEX (pulled EX).Wow...all I wish I had now was...I really don't know!

PolarBearnCO Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 With a FICO of 700+ I'm surprised you are surprised. If lenders though 700 was bad, none of the 90% of people with scores less than that would ever have a chance... lol.Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
