DCU pre-approval for Visa (and approval)

Wondering if anyone has taken them up on a pre-approved CC. HP or SP?

I know I can ask them, and I'd probably trust their answer more than other institutions. But I'd love hear first hand experience. Thanks.

I was pretty sure I'd read that, and it would seem like it CU wise. But I was afraid maybe that's only if you've had a HP within X days. Decisions, decisions.

Well, we'll see. I accepted the offer this morning and got a one line response that I (of course) clicked away from before fully comprehending. It was something about I'll hear shortly. I'm trying to position myself to have a bit more low interest CL available for when my kitchen stuff comes off 0% in the spring. I'll likely be able to get it back onto 0%, but I want a bit more breathing room of under 10%/no BT Fees in case it's necessary.

Evidently I was approved! I got no notification, I kept checking on my phone at work today but I was only looking at my inbox for messages. I logged into my account on my computer when I got home, and ...

Hope I got the best interest rate! 

 

ETA: I'll post back when I find out if they HP'd me or not.

Congratulations!  Here's to a SP!

FICO scores are your calling card to the business world. Build a negative reputation and those doors are hard to open, find that perfect balance of credit responsibility and those doors open when you desire them.

When I opened for a checking account I got preapproval for a car loan. I decided to apply for their credit card and instantly approved! I think you got good chances of getting approved.
