Applied for Best Buy card for a Camcorder. Was crossing my fingers because I thought it would be denied and I only requested 1000 credit line. About 2 minutes later she says "I have good news, you were approved for 3100. I about fell out. No interest untill January 2003. I also agreed to apply for the mastercard. How long does it take to get a decision for the mastercard? I am not crazy about household. I should not have any problems as long as I pay early on my bill, right. Thanks for responding
From about march my scores were not that good. Equifax 632 tu 530 Experian 600 I dont know who they pulled right now. On my report I do not have any negative items. I have two accounts close to the limit and the rest either paid off/closed or low balance. But I did alot of BT's to my Citi card which helped me on some of those 0 balances. I got 0% for 9 months, so of course I'm going to do the BT thing and get rid of those 24% Providian cards. Thanks for responding
if you got the best buy i guarantee you got the household gold (or platinum). just watch out if they try to ram you with an annual fee. The household comes with 3.9% for 6 months and $25 best buy GC .. 14% go to kinda sucked. i'll have to work on them after i re-arrange all my BT's
I guess we will see about the mastercard. I only chanced it because I did not want to put it on my new BofA card. I am expecting our 3rd baby any day and did not want to depend on someone else to record or take pictures. This camcorder does both. To say the least I was very excited. It is nice to finally see some progress when you have worked so hard on your credit. Thanks for your opinions.
