Barclays APPROVED!!!! WHOO HOO

I am so glad I signed up to myFICO this month. Without the knowledgeable people here and reading sucess stories and taking action on my credit portfolio I was approved for a Barclays NFL Points credit card with a limit of $1000. Thanks to everyone that helped me with questions I had. YOU guys rock!!!! My first credit card since filing for BK 7 back in 2004.

Interesting, I live in IL and even when I got my auto loan it went thru TU. Equifax and Experian have no inquiries and my scores are higher in those CB's. I really think it depends in what zone people live.

Re: Barclays APPROVED!!!! WHOO HOO

Barclays almost exclusively pulls TU.  I've not seen them pull anything else.  Not saying they haven't, just haven't seen it.

Congrats to you. They pulled my Experian in June and that's only because my TU was lock. When they pulled this month it was TU.
