Was not approved for sears last week and got the dreaded 30 day message. I waited patiently for the letter and thought it was going to say due to inquiries or too new of accts since I have done 6 or 7 apps in the past 30 days. Nope, it was for unable to verify residence. Went through 4 out of wallet questions and a "I'll be right back" and when the guy returned he approved me for a $3000 credit line, matching my Chase Freedom!!!
Very happy since I hear Sears is hard to get approved with. !!!
Nice, Congrats on the approval!

Congrats! I dont know how you could wait 30 days I would go crazy LOL. I go crazy when it the message is "we need to further review" LOL
@johnny by any chance was it the mastercard version because your limit is quite big.
Discover IT $2,600- First Premier MasterCard $1,000- Dillards Store Card $300- Fingerhut Advantage $200I sure hope so bears and turtles. I didn't ask when I was on the phone. I'll update in a week when it comes in.
I mean your CL is quite something so it should be a MC. you can call and just give them you personal info. just to check.....
Can you PM me the number you used for your Sears Recon? Thanks.
Congratulations to your approval. I about had a heart attack when they approved me in store for Sears Platinum Master Card from Citi $4,000 limit... I went there in Jan of this year because my mom got approved for the secondary back up card the Cap 1/ HSBC version which they don't have anymore if you got declined for the Citi version. I have a Chap 7 Bk from July 2009 and I filed BK on a regular Sears card for $600 back then... I had 23 inquiries as well I have no idea how in the world I got that card. $4,000 limit $250 cash limit then they dropped the cash line to $50 lol. I got spooked that they were decreasing my entire limit they told me they did that to every one who has a Sears MC is that true?
