Quick question: Who sings the song on the xmas Discover Card advert? (UK)? Thanks for any answer. Second question of mine... Added installment loan TL!.. |
|
|
|
Good question... I dunno what is the answer. I'll do some Googling and get back to you if I got an decent answer. You should email the people at Discover Card as they probably could assist you..

Paying (with Discover card) off debt and not using credit cards...
|
|
Being approved for up to five lines without deposit on Verizon Wireless..
Being approved for the HSBC $320 MasterCard.. Being approved for the $300 Sterling Trifecta... |
|
Getting approved for a TD Visa and an Amex..
The Amex was something I didn't really need, but was a huge moral victory for me considering a long ago experience I had with them. It was something I. Had. To do.. TD turned me down for years. And I had been banking with them since, oh, somewhere around 1984. Then all of a sudden, last July, I was approved for 10k when the nice lady at the bank went to bat for me. Then they auto-CLI'd me just before Christmas to 20k. Why the sudden change of heart from TD? I don't know... |
|
STILL HAVING A FEW OF MY CREDIT CARDS UNTAINTED BY.
"IT IS JUST BUSINESS".. |
|
Well I have three greatest accomplishments. The first would be my rate jack on Citi ascending to the great height of 29.99%..
The second but more important would be obtaining two new Discover credit card approvals, the first was a 13,500 limit soon followed thereafter by another with a 15,000 approval. These were my first limit approvals over 10,000....!!!. I firmly believe in the axiom now that "High limits beget higher limits". Thirdly, I appeared on CNN's Anderson Cooper when they sent someone to interview me in my home as we discussed Citi's rate jacking policies. This led to my name change on CB which I couldn't resist due to Jens suggestion... |

Joining PenFed and getting their card. Having the guts to sockdrawer BofA. Not being afraid of FICO - if no lates or baddies ever isn't good enough for 'em, screw 'em...
|
|
Adding Discover Card to my wallet. Something I wanted since I was 4 (literally - I've been a banking/credit geek for a LONG time!), and now I have it...
|
|
Getting 4 new great rewards CC..
Using my Penfed Cash Visa recon $500 CL to the max for 14 months and PIF before statement cut and an approved raise from Penfed from $500 to 19,900.. A total shock since my Pincome is only 20,000.. B off a CA that pulled TU and then freezing all CRA.. Continuing to learn from CB.. This post has been edited by. Wanabe. : 01 January 2010 - 09:29 AM.. |

I held off on new apps for a whole 12 months to get in with PenFed...
|
|
I gave up on that goal after I found out how dysfunctional they are internally..
My greatest accomplisment was I added a little over 60K in CL's... |
|
1) Rehabbing my Macy's card. (Thank God for second chances!).
2) Having a much. "loved". CA removed from my credit reports. They were reporting me 120 days late in 2009 on a collection that was paid in 2006. Gained about 25 points on EQ.. 3) raised my credit scores. I'm looking forward to this year, as all of my remaining baddies will be falling off!.. |
|
1) NFCU..
2) Raising scores from high 590s to mid-700s...... 3) App spree resulting in $6K more in CLs, and 4 new cards..... It was a. GOOD. Year for me!.. |
|
Going from a 510 score in December of last year to 657 score now.(TU FICO) didn't pull EQ yet..
Improving my credit report.. This post has been edited by. Beli. : 01 January 2010 - 01:42 PM.. |

Joining NFCU..
Starting the long overdue process of credit repair and seeing some successes in 3 months time... |
|
Getting rid of every single last Collection Account on my reports!!!!!.
(5-7 depending on the CRA)... |
|
We bought a house!.
I have great credit now, but it was hard earned. When I was deep in Discover credit card debt (35k worth) I gave up on the notion of ever owning a home. My DH has always had good credit so I've felt that he suffered because of mine... |
|
Starting my credit file at age 15, and lowering dads utilization...
|
|
Getting approved for my first unsecured Discover credit card in almost 10 years. I haven't even possessed an unsecured card of my own since 2003!.
I owe it all to CB!.. |
|
(1) Rehabbing a Student Loan that had been haunting me.
(2) Finally feeling like I had progressed enough in my rebuilding to drop kick HSBC, Orchard, and Hooters on New years eve!. (3) Managing to hold on to my Chamu and Junami accounts amidst all of the credit fluctuations in 2009.. |
|
My goal was to reach the 700 club by 01/2010..
My highest score is TU and it's a. 691. , so I'll say I'm in line at the door,. But still waiting on a table to free up.... I cant thank CB enough...... |
|
Hit the 700 club on all 3 for both me and DH..
Got instant approval, tier one financing for a 2010 Mercedes 450GL.. Got util down below 30% from 85%+ for both me and DH... |
|
-moved across country late 2008 and scrambled to avoid lates in 2009, but DID IT!!!.
-GW'd 5 auto lates. -New auto financing @ 3.99%... now we don't have to worry about the car bursting into flames everytime we leave the house.... JYEAH!.. |
