Club Carlson Credit Card

Hello all,

I was recently approved for the Club Carlson credit card after 3 recon call, got the platinum one even though applied for the Premier Rewards VS. Anyway, still not bad. Made the first purchase, first statement cut and it now shows the 50k points in my us bank online account.

 

With other's experiences here, after how much time were you able to see your points post to your Club Carlson account ?

Re: Club Carlson Credit Card

Mine post to my Club Carlson account after one billing cycle.  So I made the bonus on one account in January, statement closed 2/1/15 but won't post until 3/1/15.  I don't know what takes it so long, but I have both Business and Personal and it's like that on both accounts.

Shame they made you settle for the gag prize platinum....Probably so they didn't have to cover that larger bonus. US Bank is known for that crap.

 

Good going on the pts though.

Re: Club Carlson Credit Card

Congratulations!

OP what bureau did they pull?

 

This is the next card on my list, because I have nearly 50,000 points already, and no way to feed more points to keep them alive until I can use them. The annual points are not to be ignored.

High Bal Jan 2009 $116k on $146k limits 80% Util.
Oct 2014 $46k on $127k 36% util EQ 722 TU 727 EX 727

I got the same reason for denial, which is true for me (I have about 16) but still its all about getting the right person on the recon call.

Re: Club Carlson Credit Card

Sorry you got the infamous 'bait and switch' US bank is known for doing this.  Who knows why or what causes these app downgrades...  I have heard that over time people have gotten 'upgraded' to higher levels of the card so call them in 3-6 months and inquire about it if you cannot make them move you now.  It may not work, but still, 50k points is very usable.
