Credit Cards

[Carlile92]

I just got off the phone with Barclays recon line and after applying online and being flat out denied for the card I called in and spoke to a super nice ENGLISH speaking rep and I told him my info and a little more employment history and what I use my current card for and what my payment habits are and told him annual income and he said I looked at your credit report and it looks like Iyou are taking all steps to build a good credit history and we would love to help you in your quest and we are going to approve you for it with 1000 cl lol I only wanted the minimum cl but beggers can not be choosers let me know if anyone wants backdoor number used

Super Congrats, yet another Barclays recon success story, surprise surprise You could have probably asked for a higher CL and they would have reconsidered that as well, not sayin you would have gotten one, but Barclays is awesome with recons.

Congrats again!!

Congrats! You are yet another person I am jealous of. Lol what are your scores?

The number I called is 18663691283 and I was not looking for bi cl I would of been happier than hell with 500 and my report they pulled was tu and I had 661 fico and I stated that when I called told him what was on my report and he gave me no hassle prolly helped that you only needed bad credit to get it and my score was decent compared to who they usually approve

[money-matters]

Thank you, that number worked like a charm! :-)

When you say worked like a charm do you mean you did a recon and were successful?

Just curious to hear another Barclays recon success story.

[money-matters]

Yes, I called and answered a few questions and got approved for $1500.
