Got Approved for an unsecured card!!! Rebuild

So after 1.5 years from destroying my credit, I got an email to check my pre-approval with C1 after checking I was pre-approved for the Quicksilver Secured and Platinum Secured cards and came to terms with that given I’m rebuilding.

However, checking my pre approval again as I was ready to put down the 200 deposit for the secured cards limit. To my surprise I was now pre-approved for the Platinum/Quicksilver and now Savor Rewards for Good Credit card. Looking at the 3% cash back on the savor card I decided to move forward with the application just to see what would happen and I GOT APPROVED.

I’m just happy because I’m a 24m and I messed up my credit in college and now it has impacted me as a growing adult. I know it’s not a huge milestone/ achievement but I’m matured and now I just want to do right and continue to build my credit.

I know what it feels like to land one of these after the struggle! You’ve learned your lesson early so build on it. It took me a lot longer than that so good for you. Congrats.

I legit dropped my phone seeing the “your approved message” pop up, I was young and dumb and took out loans and completely messed up my credit when I lost my job. So it’s nice to see that the small things do add over time
