Holland America Barclay's Visa

Just sharing another success story.  Saw this card online and thought since I like HAL I would give it a shot.  Was denied online but called credit analyst who reviewed my "excellent" (her words, not mine) credit history, asked a few mundane questions, and approved a card with a $2500 limit and a 15.9% interest rate (I don't know which I am happier about, the lower than usual interest rate or the approval itself),  Nice start to my day.

 

Fico is 687.

Re: Holland America Barclay's Visa

Thank you.  That's good to know.  In my experience the same applies to my Discover account.  They treat me well, and I do the same for them!
