It's not unusual for creditors to approve one application and then decline the second. They want to see how you can handle the one account for approving more.  Certainly understandable when you are fairly new to the credit world.

Recons don't happen with Synchrony.  Keep the walmart card, let it age, then apply again for Amazon in six months.  I was denied for Amazon 3 months before I was approved again so it is possible after a while.

Were you denied because of derogs or new credit ?

Synch doesn't recon computer denials unfortunately. After a 6 months you will be in a better spot with 1 year AaoA (fico starts at 2 years). In 6 months go for Barclaycard Rewards and depending on profile maybe discover or Amex they both dig young files (Amex recently).

Good luck!
