Yeah! And in all honestly all you need to do is talk to anyone and say I want to be reconsidered or send a email to them, they'll do it no questioned asked

Re: PenFed OMGGGGGG!!

1) Congrats Remaa

 

 

2) I was approved for the Defender Visa, this morning...

Do call back and ask to app for the PLOC?

 

It'd be 'nice' to just have...is it hard to qualify?

 

Does bring about more initial scrutiny, to one's profile .....

I've heard PenFed can be prickly....compared to the easy goings I'm used to a NFCU

(Got Navy 15k CLOC basically as a throw in w/ car loan app)

 

What are the odds they'd approve a PLOC right away or should I wait till the CC is in hand?

 

It just seems I heard PenFed can be tricky, am I off base?

Re: PenFed OMGGGGGG!!

Congrats! What is your internal scoring with Penfed? Even though they pull your Equifax report, they don't use your regular Fico score, but their own. I'm thinking about applying for their credit cards too, but I'm just curious about the scores.

Re: PenFed OMGGGGGG!!

MssRemaa congrats keep up the good work

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

How do you find that? Will they tell you if you ask or do you need to wait for mail?

Thank You Fico Family! I'm new to Penfed... I have no idea what my score was... She never told me and everything was done over the phone... I can't login to my account until I receive a code.... All I know is my regular Eq is 690....
