Likely a system glitch as reported in other threads. Clean your cache /history & cookies and retry in another few days or a week.

I just had the same thing happened. I was bummed because I could have used that $20 off coupon!

Just experienced the same issue with the HSN approval not being click able. I posted instructions on a similar thread on how to make it work for you.

Same thing happens to me; not sure they are aware of the glitch. Called HSN and it seems that no one knew what I was talking about; looks like they are trying to get folks to apply for the card. Don't think it's worth it for a "company card" doubt I would get the MC version because of inquiries. BTW I haven't been able to get any preapproval pop ups on some of these sites where others are getting them easily. EQ 659, TU 738, EX 748. Have several prime cards including Chase Sapphire, Chase Freedom and Slate along with Discover It and others. 1 30 day late payment in past year; have a few mor 30 day lates but these are over 3 years ago.
