LL Bean MC Approved

texasman07 — Wed, 04 Jul 2018 02:05:01 GMT

Instant approval after verification questions
5,300 CL
18.74% apr
Tons of INQ
No baddies
1% utl
EQ 771 FICO

I tried for the BB Visa over 6 times in 2 years yet denied all the time however can get this card.
I also have the Macys Amex 24k CL and Shell Mastercard 8k CL with Citigroup but they won’t give me the BestBuy :-(

congrats on your ll bean mc approval!

i didn't know ll bean mc was thru citi bank. does that mean the pre-approval pop-ups are no longer happening like they did when it was the visa by barclaycard?

Congrats on the approval!!

Two questions:

1. Did they pull just EQ? The reason I am asking is because CITI is known to pull 2 bureaus.

2. Does anyone know if this card will report as CITI Bank?

Thanks!!

Just found out the answer to my question about the sct. Now that it is with citibank, the pre-approval pop-ups still do happen. Just got one in the check-out process, the pop-up that is.

@schsa210 Did you receive an actual pre approval popup at checkout or just the popup to apply? Curious about this one

Re: LL Bean MC Approved

Cold app! I have been on a roll with Citi Group except for BB Visa. Macys Amex Instant now up to 24,000 CL in 6 months . Shell Mastercard now at 8,000 CL and Exxon Mobil 5,000 CL.

Just went thru the checkout as a guest process again and it ended up being just an pop-up to apply for the card, no verbiage stating a pre-approval.

Congrats, OP!

Perhaps you are reaching your internal limit with Citi. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
