I called the 800 number and got the annual fee waived for the first year. Approved EXP 712 EQ 701 TU 696 (my best accounts are not posted on TU) Credit history over 3 years old, including a credit card paid in full and closed.
Just make sure you pay all your charges when the bill is due or you will be subjected to a late fee of $30 or 2.9% of the delinquent amount. Have fun
