My friend in the630's was asked for paystubs! Does that mean approved probably?!Possibly. I read on the FAQs that they will try and work with people who have limited credit. I'm guessing since it is a division of a Chinese bank that they would try and work with foreigners who have recently moved to the country. This could possibly mean that they are open to approving applications for lower credit scores or limited credit.
Sidenote: I was approved for the Gold UnionPay card. My scores are 750s and I haven't apped for anything in over a year. Don't know the limit. They don't have a 1-800 number so I had to call the main branch. The person I spoke with said I'll get the card with the limit in 10-15 days.
That would bug me so much, haha. Please let us know when you find out.
It did and don't worry I'll update lol. I didn't get this card for the rewards or the possible SL. I only wanted it since it is unique. It's a card on a network that most non-myficoers have never heard of. And it won't be a problem using it since it just runs on the Discover network in the US.
Tell that to the JCB Makurai users out there and watch them react somewhere between laughter and rolling their eyes. Actually I've seen the UnionPay logo in several places around Los Angeles, though seems to be a nearly 1:1 overlap with JCB in that regard though I haven't paid that much attention to them. The dream of universal acceptance failed so I pretty much just use the JCB card for known purchases (albeit non-trivially sized per month heh) where they have the optional/full Discover payment features.
