Laughable Denial Reason-Wells Fargo

Applied for the Cash Wise Visa for the $200 Spend Bonus. Fico 788-Pulled EX. Denied for one reason only:

No Retail Credit Card Reporting. (We look for how you are using your credit. We look for what types of credit you have)

Well. Sorry I closed my store cards last year. :/

Djgrolyos shame on you for being proactive and eliminating retail cards that you no longer need! Time for a trip to the "wood shed" ... Unreal! Then again it is WF. Used to have virtually everything with them and I packed up my old kit bag and found a door that went out and left never to look back! Smiley Wink

I agree that 'laughable' is an excellent way to describe that reason. Especially because on a couple of score models they list retail accounts as a reason hurting your score. So it's bad to not have them, and bad to have them? Oy.

Same here! I got a Cash Wise right before the extent of their fraud became clear. Once it did, I took full advantage of the 15 months of no interest, got a $300 checking bonus, and then closed all my accouts down Smiley Happy
