Bank drive thru-offering credit card

The last two times I've gone to my main bank, not chase or NFCU, they ask me if I want to apply for credit card. (Most recent was yesterday). Do tellers have something on their screen to offer card? In the 5 years prior I've never gotten this. Now that credit is better I'm thinking thing are targeting me. Although, I haven't gotten any mail offers from this bank.


Starting Score: EQ 551 TU 548 CK 607on 6/8/12, EX 542(AMEX pull 3/4/12)
Current Score: EQ 808 TU --- EX --- CK 804(FAKO-EX 821, EQ 823, TU 803)

5/3 use to have offers on the screen and I think they were "SOLID" Like the Chase ones that I don't see anymore, Wells Fargo, and NFCU.

I'm surprised more banks don't do it... and the SP's online to check like more and more are doing... why not?!

Could be that they know something or they are just pushing their cc's now.

You have pre-approved offers at this bank and they can see them when they pull your bank info up.

One of my banks, BB&T, does this, but it does not mean pre-approval. They are just pushing them, at least BB&T is. The teller told me this when after she asked me if I wanted a CC, I kindly replied, no thanks, you guys denied me for a past BK and told me as long as it was on record I would be denied. She said oh, well we have to ask everyone.
