It closed on the 9th and has yet to show up on my reports. Kinda slow.

I think he's talking about a new account which would trigger an alert.
Nonetheless not sure why it's that important if a new account reports quickly or not. OP already has enough accounts so a new one wouldn't make any difference,
Yes, a new account reporting to the agencies for the very first time. I like to track these things for data points. Simple curiousity when dealing with a new bank. I'm used to seeing accounts reporting either 1.)before you receive the physical card or 2.)a few days after your statement closes.
It's "important" to me for my own reasons(see above) and *I* will know when *I* have "enough". (not quite there yet)

Just an FYI. My new BofA Secured Card is alreay showing up in my Capital One Credit Tracker under "open accounts" and I just saw the approval go through on Saturday. It's not showing on MyFico yet.
EDIT: I just realized that it might still be showing an old account on which I was an AU - which is much more likely. Sorry
My unsecured card still hasn't shown up anywhere.
They are good about reporting, it will show up, just be patient. Hopefully this week you will see the alert.
Here is another thing with me, since I know I can be a little "naughty" with "spreeing", and after reading AA threads, I never accept that I've gotten an approval UNTIL the card arrives in my hands. I also never accept that I'm out of the woods until all my cards start to report. It makes it official. The newest member of the family. Fully adopted. Not fostered.
So I'm sitting here like, "Yeah they approved me. My card arrived. I've met my spending threshold. Statement closed. Uh-oh.. it hasn't reported yet...odd...did they find out something and change their minds?" It's a gulity conscience of sorts. LOL
