Tried the Barclay's prequal site since it works again

Anonymous — Fri, 25 Sep 2015 05:43:30 GMT

Did it for the DW and it recommended the Arrival Card. Bingo. She was approved for $3500. Her Tu is 677, which is what they probably pulled, Ex 740, and Eq 703 as of today.

I don't know that it's fully working yet. But congrats on the approval nonetheless!

Yeah we will have to see the approval rate after a number of people go through it.

Ok I found this link:

It recommended Arrival card and Ring card. Are these recommendations as solid as a rock or are they like Discover and worthless?

I'm scared! I have lots of inquiries from recent car purchase. I also have a small balance on my Barclay Apple card. I am able to pay that off right quick if needed. I have had the card for 9 months with perfect history. Should I pay that balance off before applying?

Not sure it makes any difference but I played around a bit with different "types of benefit" and "credit rating" until "pre-selected" offer came up with just one interest rate (arrival+) rather than two and it says "accept now" rather than "apply now", on the bottom of the page? It tells you how to opt-out the pre screen offer rather than just ask you for e-mail address to receive updated offer later.

I was approved for Arrival+ for 2.5k/15.99% on the 15th.

I just ran it for 3 different people listing from Excellent to average credit and chose 2 different things I wanted (travel, Cash) and all 3 were recommended for the same cards.

but in the past recommended was not pre-qual and if you actually were pre-qual it would say congrats!....

I can't get anything but recommendations to pop up for me or my wife, but it pops up really quick. A couple of seconds is all it takes. I find it hard to believe they can do a SP that quick.

It will have an "accept now" button if it's a solid preapproval, otherwise it has an "apply now" button.

However they seem really approval happy on the Arrival+ these days.

I was trying to pre-approve site for Barclay this morning, and received above message. Do I have a good chance to get an approval? I tried to apply last month for Barclay Reward card, but got denied on recon due to too many new accounts.

I clicked accept now button and filled out all information.

After click a submit button, I received below message.

Did I get denied again? or should I call for a recon?
