BOFA credit card denial?

Hello all,

 

I just applied for a bank of america credit card and got the "further processing is needed." Any idea on whether i was approved or not? i would say that i got denied. just wanted everyones opinion.

 

Thanks.

You could always try calling and checking the app status. I think the number is 877-721-9405. If not approved you can try a recon, the number should be in the backdoor  numbers thread. They could just need to verify some information. Keep us posted!

"Further processing needed" doesn't always mean a denial. Call the app status number for bofa and it will usually have more updated info. Good luck!

True that. I received that message when apping for the BofA Priveliges with Travel Rewards. I only knew I got it becuase I signed into my online account. I also received that same message when applying for my Chase Freedom card. I received an email like two weeks later congratualing me on the approval. I would call right away.

I was given the same thing and called the next day to verify some info and was approved, not necessarily a denial, GL.

When I applied for the Privileges card, I got the same message, called and was approved within 5 minutes.

 

They probably just need to etiehr review your credit file further, or they need some additional info from you.
