Uber Visa Credit Card Data Points Thread for Approvals

Went for it and got the message below:

Unfortunately, we are not able to provide you with an immediate decision on the application you just submitted. Your application requires further review, which can take up to 10 days.

Re: Uber Visa Credit Card Data Points Thread for Approvals

So went ahead and called (866) 205-5973 (Barclay Credit Analyst).  Told him I applied for the Uber Visa and wanted to know if i needed to confirm any information.  He verified that it was me, asked me income.  He was going to put me on hold and i told him to wait.  I explained to him that the $16k Cap1 Venture balance and the PenFed $5k balance currently showing on my credit report were actually $0 and that i had the proof to email it in if needed. I told him the statements do not close until November 3rd then another week to reflect on my reports, he said no problem, then put me on hold.

 

About 5 mins later, he came back and said that he appreciates me for having such a good history with them and that he noticed i don't use my Barclay Arrival. He asked if i don't mind moving some CL so that he can open the Uber Credit Card.  I told him to move $5k into the Uber CC and left $7.5k on the Arrival.


Approved, will get the card in 7-10 days.  Already got two emails from Barclay saying congrats.

 

So it is possible to move CL to open the Uber CC.

No new accounts in last 6 months

2% utilization

So the initial denial would've been max exposure then? I guess a lower exposure due to you not using the Arrival?

Re: Uber Visa Credit Card Data Points Thread for Approvals

Yeah, I was hoping for around 10k, but we're only going to use this for dining anyway and hopefully we don't spend more than 500 a month eating out! Forgot to put in that the purchase apr is 15.99% if anyone wants to know.

 

Is it a hard pull to request a CLI with Barclays?
