Re: Difficult Ones

Wouldn't it be nice to have a sticky up top, cross-listing, ccc's and the CRA's they pull on considering someone for a cc? Kind of like what we have for common abbreviations?

Of course, there's always: http://www.whogavemecredit.com/index.php?page=search.php

But I find that so unwieldy.

Oh well, just a thought.

CCCU

Re: Difficult Ones

As some of you know by now, Amex and it also seems Discover, are allowing the non super-prime to get their foot in the door. Same with BoA, HSBC, WAMU and even Chase. You don't have to have scores over 700 to get a card with any of these five CCCs. IMO, these are the hardest approvals as a whole by CCCs (why am I doing this).
 
Simmons
Pulaski (wonder why, when was the last time anyone posted about Pulaski, same for Simmons)
Discover
Amex, CITI (tie)
BoA
Chase

The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Re: Difficult Ones

Is Fleet still around as a bank?  I was with Fleet (east cost: NY/NJ) but it was bought out and converted to a BoA at least three years ago.  In fact it was a different bank before Fleet bought that one out, but the name escapes me.. National something I believe.

Re: Difficult Ones

I recently got Amex, WaMu and Chase. I'm waiting to see what Citi says, but the hardest card for me to get is (don't laugh!) USAA Mastercard. The reason being is that I have a couple of late payments from a year and half ago, but they gave me a $50,000 car loan! They really do care about payment history. As for Discover, I haven't even attempted to apply for that card. Applying for that would be like pulling the trigger myself!!! Lol! TU-636 EQ-635 EX-636
