banana republic vents, 4 HPs!!!!

so i applied for the banana republic card last night, and whether i got approved or not, that would end my app spree for another year. anyhoo, got the 7-10 days msg, called this monrning to check status and to recon, a nice lady was telling me that it needs further verification bc there were mutliple applications submitted. she verified all my info, came back and said she removed 3 apps and sent one to CW to make a decision. i asked her if all 4 would resulted in 4 HPs on my report and she said yes and apologized bc their website experienced a glitch last night where the submit button would be pressed multiple times on its own. OMG!!!!! i would be very livid if i dont get approved, are you kidding me? 4 HPs for one crappy banana republic card? what can i do myfico friends?????

Ask to speak to a supervisor or check the backdoor numbers stickies and call that. Because the multiple apps were not your fault they have to remove the ones that were placed in error.

Re: banana republic vents, 4 HPs!!!!

It's possible she is wrong in saying it would be 4 HP's. I had the same thing happen when I applied for Macy's. I was approved and very quickly received my card in the mail. The very next day after I received the card, I received 2 denials from Macy's in separate envelopes, both stating the time between applications was too short. Confused, I called in and spoke with a manager of some sort who said I got the letters because I applied 3 times in one day. I asked him whether he thought someone would ever apply 3 times in the same day for a card and he said no. I asked if that meant 3 HP's were done and he indicated that one HP was used for all 3. To be sure, I used one of the "denials" to get my free credit report ( Smiley Very Happy) from the agency they pulled and he was right--just one HP.

Smiley Very Happy I would ask them to remove the other 3 pulls, as it is not your fault, you technically did not authorize them.
