Which Barclays card? It's worth a try. You have nothing to lose since you've already taken the HP.

Try recon. You took a H.P so give them a call. your 695 and discover looks nice. UMMMM. call them. If  the Visa isnt good then ask them for a Apple Barclays card. My 2 cents.

Pretty straight forward, income, why this late or this, what you need the card for or etc. etc.

each rep is different on how they handle things.

I just recon'd Barclays today.  Asked income, employment, school, and approval.  Took me 5 minutes.
