no one will pre qualify me even though i have good credit. orchard bank is only interested in offering me a secured card. my scores are TU 707 EX 724(i think) EQ 742. this is humiliating. why wont they pre-approve me?
no one will have the exact reason why, it could be your scores, your report, your history, age of accounts, inquires, baddies, tons of factors, try another place if you can't get it there.. hsbc is no good, try like walmart, or paypal, or even hooters.
what is your true myfico score?
I have credit numbers like that, and only after two and a half years of working on my credit and doing everything right did I receive a pre-approval offer from any company.
How long is your credit history? That's just as relevant as your scores.
I just got one from citi. first one in years.
EQ 788
EX 771
I'd be carefull about applying to prime cards if your history isn't long, though. When I first started, my scores where all 730+ and my credit profile was pristine except for having a very short credit history. I figured I could go on an app spree and get good credit lines, but I was wrong. They don't just look at your scores, they look at your account age as well.
I'd suggest getting the BoA 99/500 card and perhaps a Best Buy card, but don't be surprised or shocked that you don't have them banging down your door with pre-approval letters if the length of your credit history is short.
