Re: Barclays

Same here. My Barclays hit my credit reports literally within 24 hours or so of being approved. It was at least another five days or so after that before I got my card and activated it.
Year 2012: All Scores in the 520 range, during a foreclosure, CC Settlement and high UTIL. Very ugly days...
April 2023: EX8: 840; EQ8: 832; TU8: 842 -- Middle Mortgage Score: 822
In My Wallet: Discover $73.7K; Cap1 Venture $48.7K; Amex ED $38K; Amex Optima $2.5K; Amex Delta Gold $18K; Citi Costco $22.5K; Cap1 Plat $8.4K; Barclay $7K; Chase Amazon $6K; BoA Plat $21.6K; Citi TY Pref $21K; US Bank $4K; Dell $5K; Care Credit $6.5K. Total Revolving CL: $296K
My UTIL: Less than 1% - Only allow about $10 a month to report, on one account. .

I applied and got approved for the rewards mc on Saturday. The account is already listed on my Experian credit report in 2 business days! Is this normal practice for them? I'm definitely not complaining because it dropped my utilization drastically! Just seems weird.

Re: Barclays

Just got approved on recon yesterday and they already reported my account as paid for July on Experian. I got approved for the Amazon card on Wednesday and they reported the same thing today. I haven't actually received either card yet, but I'm happy about the early reporting, as it raised my available credit, dropped my uti to 2% and raised my Experian score by 7 points.
