No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Side note: I just pulled up the NFL Extra Points application site and clicked on Chicago Bears .... now I REALLY want to app for this card haha. The card looks so good
but I have to refrain on wasting the hard pull as it looks like this is a Barclays card and they just denied my CLI request this week.
@CallaLilyLover wrote:*sigh* Decided to try and push my luck. Applied for NFL Extra Points Visa (huge fan) and received the message listed below. Football season is finally here, all I wanted is one more CC and a few discounts at nflshop.com! That's what I get. Researched the card online and after reading through a ton of reviews people with low scores/limited history seemed to be approved fairly often. Thought I had a decent chance. Now I'll sit here twiddling my thumbs and biting my nails waiting on the denial letter and/or email to arrive. Second HP for TU totally wasted. Awesome...
Update - So I was denied for the card. The reason they gave is *Insufficient number of credit cards on credit report* umm yea I know......kind of thought you could help me with that problem This is the most frustrating part of building credit to me. When you're starting fresh no one wants to give you a card unless you already have a history of cards and in order to get to that point you either have to jump through the secured hoops, or do some joint application nonsense neither of which appeal to me. So I've learned my lesson! No more HP, no checking pre-qualifying sites, no worrying about applying for anything else just gardening. Heavy use through the Chase and little use on the Platinum card. Maybe that will give Capital One enough incentive to increase my limit to something decent around the 5th statement, maybe Not the outcome I was hoping for but its OK! Need to be thankful for what I have and relax. Thanks everyone
thats weird i got my nfl extra points card when I was 18 with only a year of history on a cosigned credit card
I definitely wasn't getting it for the design. I'm a die hard 49ers fan and I swear the design for my team is butt ugly. idk who was in charge of that design but its a definite failure lol I checked the standard NFL option.
Thank you MT that makes me feel so much better about being rejected!
