Barclays report new account in 1 day??

taxi818 · ‎09-12-2014

Well just checked my email. Said alert from credit sesame. Mind you I have 3 b monitoring here at my fico. Nothing. Says new account added. Damn. I just applied night before last. 26 hours later it is already on my report. How the hell. Walmart is not that fast. I got discover 6 weeks ago. Still nothing. Wow.

I don't know exactly how fast, but I have noticed it is very quick. My husband applied for the SM, and it was showing within the week.

That was my experience as well. My Arrival+ account showed up next day after the account was approved. Funny thing is Scorewatch states that the account has a opening date 1 day before I applied.

My Barclay account was opened, statement generated and reported to Experian CR in less than a month. They are super fast!

I got approved for the SM card last week and the new account is still not showing yet.

I have Score Watch from MyFico which monitors EQ. The alert for a new account was received 3 days after I applied.

Scorewatch does not report the same day. There's a lag. But it will report a day or two later. Keep an eye out

+1 . Protect my ID (which I got free because of the Target breach) is very fast with alerts. I usually receive alerts same day or the very next morning of changes on my Experian report. So for me, Barclay reported to Experian right away.

Yes. They are really fast! My Citi reported a balance decrease on the 6th. I got an alert from Ex on the 7th via SW. And for EQ, I got one on the 10th. It works, it just takes a while to populate the result and send out the alert.
