My DM took the longest of any card I've ever got (in recent memory) to show up on my reports. I think it was around the second statement actually. I doubt it will take yours that long to report, I also doubt very many others have waited that long to see it show up.
I hope you use your Barclays a bit before it reports (normal usage etc, it sounded like you use it and I doubt you have to worry about it being closed really). I'm guessing they'll see you've closed other cards on your own and are just replacing them.
I'm still smiling about your approval btw LOL
+1, on both these statements. ![]()

Mine hasn't reported either!!!!! I called last month when I got the card and they told me it should report a day or two after the statement closes which was the 26th of Feb. and it didn't report, so I'm hoping it will report after the 26th of this month. If not, I'm gonna call them again.

This will be my second statement so I'll let you all know if mine reports. My statement closes on the 26th. So I'll give it about two days after that.

For me, it took a while. I think a few days after the first statement was cut and a payment posted.

I'm thinking taking awhile will do me good as far as getting more history in with Barclays.

I've had two or three statements now (latest one cut a few days ago) and it hasn't reported yet. I realized I'm not in that much of a rush to have it report anyway, it's not like it's going to do my credit score any good - quite the opposite.

I concur! I've opened 2 cards since I opened Barclays and have not experienced any problem whatsoever.
