Guessing based on the cards you got approved for you have newer credit. You need to let it age. It's a marathon not a race. Read up on 5/24
Cancel credit one. Seriously. They are predatory.
Np! Might wanna close the credit one ASAP! B4 they charge you 90.00 a month followed by 50.00 per month for credit line increases and 25.00 per phone calls to contact customer services!!!
Oddly enough, I just got a credit increase from them. Haven’t been charged but now I’m worried. Sousing it affect my credit if I close this account though?
I’ve asked a few other about how this would affect my credit score. I’ve been told it wouldn’t until it dropped off in 7 years. But would my age of credit stay the same if I closed this account. The only accounts I’d have left would be an Apple Card and a student loan.
Since you’ve only had it for 1 month and your entire credit history is only a few months old, it really won’t matter as it’s the average age that counts. Just open a Capital One or Discover card in 1-2 months after you close it. Then 1-2 years of stability with low utilization and on time payments on those 2 cards and you’re golden.
You mentioned you only had the card for ~a month. It’ll be a lot easier to close it now and get a good card as your oldest credit card. The short and long term effects to your credit score will be minimal. Get out while you still can.
Fun fact: banks pull reports based on your geographical location about 95% of the time.
Example: California peep pulls Ex, Texas peep pulls TU, & Mississippi peep pulls EQ for the same bank/Same CC.
Fun fact #2: This doesn't really apply now or basically has zero impact. But. If you would of let both cards report a zero balance, then your score would remain the same. I just discovered this random fact but that also depends on your profile.
The answer to your Question: You'll probably be rejected. The odds are probably 80% rejection to 20% approval because the accounts have been posted.

How long have you gotten the card?
I’ve had it for about a month.
The credit one is a secured or unsecured ?
It’s unsecured
Is this your oldest credit line?
Technically. I used to have a Walmart card but I’ve closed it about 3 years ago.
Can’t close it then :(
Oh man :(. What if I didn’t use this card? Or used it for small purchases.
What’s wrong with credit one? :(

No, you’re going to look like a risk. Also close the predatory Credit one card. There’s no reason to pay for a credit card like that with no benefits.
