Anyone else have the Sallie Mae MC through Barclay? Just got approved for this after reconning. Pretty excited since it's my first card to help rebuild after finishing DMP. At the moment I just have this card (when it arrives) and my Sallie Mae student loan. So a pretty thin report despite an otherwise good score and lengthy history.

What's your score like? I would like to app for this card but I've been denied by Barclay before and it's making me hesitant to try for that one. Is this a student card?

Never mind I just saw your signature. Lol!
I was probably editing my sig when you posted that.
Was that the Upromise card?
Nope, it was the Sallie Mae Rewards World Mastercard. I had looked into that one too, but I liked the rewards structure a little bit better based upon my shopping habits.
I tried to find that one and was not able to did you call barclay directly or was there a website for the sallie mae one?
I found it thanks
Glad you found it. As you can see for the right shopping habits, the upromise card is definitely better. If you spend a lot online, buy mobile/exxon gas or go to restaurants/movies a lot then that's the one for you. For me, I like the groceries benefit and the non-brand specific gas reward since I never go to mobile/exxon.
