Re: COMMENITY BANK VIRGIN AMERICA CARD HELP!

300.00 w/150.00 yearly? Are they that ridiculous?

Re: COMMENITY BANK VIRGIN AMERICA CARD HELP!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I thought according to the card act the AF cannot be >25% of the credit limit?

Re: COMMENITY BANK VIRGIN AMERICA CARD HELP!

I got a letter from a CLI request from comenity on my Sportsman's Guide Visa that said denied due to the account being recently opened.  No number to call.  I guess I will just wait 4 months and hit the button again.

 

I called the number today in the email I recieved acknowledging my TotalRewards application and telling me to wait 7 to 10 days.  The CSR said he could see the app but that it had not been processed yet and I should wait and call back after getting my responce. 

 

I have been unable to find a Comenity Backdoor number anywhere that will let you talk to anyone other than a normal CSR.

I was initially approved for the same 300, I was told there was an error that day and everyone got that. They then upped it to 25k. 

 

The reason they declined me was too many inquires, I pointed out that it was 2 including them and they approved me after that.

I've heard a few stories consistent with yours - $300 limit.  Maybe Comenity is having growing pains making the jump from store cards to airline cards?  Not a good start for Comenity and a bad reflection on Virgin America.

855-871-9842 - you don't want to press to to visa verify... i eventually got to rep just going through system and asking when it asked why I was calling.

they will only verify the app is in system though, which the email did right after I applied so not much purpose in calling unless you got the letter already then it's either denied or you need to verify using the pin on the letter.
