A while back I got an offer for a low interest rate credit card. I called to ask about it because I wanted to transfer a high rate card balance to a much lower interest rate.
They said I was declined (I wanted a $9000 or so limit)....but in the mail a couple of weeks later I got an actual card, ready to go with a limit of $3000.
Is that common? I figured since I was declined that was end of story. The person on the phone didn't say anything about a lower limit etc yet I got a card in the mail, info on the limit, and the peel of label that said to activate it call the automated #....I was kind of shocked to say the least. I now have an extra card that I don't use but figured in an emergency it might be good to have. I haven't activated it though.
