Credit Cards

How do I find info on this card? Kind of sick of my us airways and would like to trade to something else. They did waive the af, but have no need for the miles. Has anyone had luck with Barclays doing this?

I already did, got a 7-10 day message, called a rep and she said declined.  Hoping it was because app hit a froze report...

Google Barclay and Ring card, you will probably get right to app page.

They pull TU.

Call tomorrow when credit is open, number above in backdoor sticky.... they seem to decline a lot or small CL, recon is usually good success rate.

They even tell you what score you need and link back to this site for reference. ;O

Long time lurker, I pulled the trigger today, my TU pulled from FICO today 4/17 is exactly 680 . The message I got from Barclays, was the further processing will be required - stay tuned...

Been away from the forums for a while (very busy with school), but came by today to find that there is a new card out there -- Barclay Ring.  I've read what they have to say on the Barclaycard Ring site and it seems like a great card to have around when carrying a balance will be unavoidable.  I don't have any experience with Barclay, but I've read that they aren't known for giving out generous CLs (<$1k in a lot of cases) and I'm looking for some input from those of you who do have a Barclay card or know someone who does.

I've been looking for a low interest card that I can keep around for times where I know I will have to carry a balance.  My lowest right now is 19.24% on my BCE.  I've also been looking into getting a MC.

Is this the card I'm looking for?

Thanks.

Once I get some balances paid down I'll be all over this one.  A low APR card is the only thing I missing. I've got the rewards covered, I just need a low APR card for those times when I need to carry a balance outside of store card finance specials.

This is exactly what I was thinking.  I've heard Barclay is stingy with CLs though.

Not sure where you heard that from.  There's even a recent thread that shows otherwise.

Does this card offer rewards of any kind?
