topic WF Propel approval in Credit Card Approvals

WF Propel approval

CreditWarriorOne — Tue, 11 Aug 2020 01:02:24 GMT

Piggybacking off of the thread I had in applications, I figured I'd share my stats now that I got approved for the Propel.

I opened up a WF checking account earlier this year, primarily to build up the oft-discussed "relationship preference" that the bank has for its issuance of credit cards. After about 5 months I started having offers for the Cash Wise Visa show up on my account page, and WF had been bombarding me with mailers for that card a lot lately. I already had the Chase FU and didn't need another 1.5x card & I was always set on the Propel anyway.

Anyways, I finally had an offer for the Propel show up on my account & I applied straight away. There was no instant approval, surprisingly, and the app went to pending. After calling in and verifying my contact info on Saturday, I was told that further action would be taken on the application on Monday. Well, after logging into my account this morning I saw that the Propel was added, and that my SL is $5500!

This puts me at 5/24 but only 1/6; I went through an app spree late last year through January and got approved for 4 other cards across Chase/Cap One/FNBO (the grandfathered Ducks Unlimited 5% gas card). I may apply for the Penfed Pathfinder if that card is ever reopened for new applicants, but that wouldn't be until next year anyway. Technically the Propel is my first Amex, so maybe I'll give those cards a closer look down the line.

Stats:

0% utilization

TU 771

EQ 771

EX 737

It looks like WF only pulled EX.

Congrats on the approval. WF seems to pull Equifax for new card applications and Experian SP for CLI. Enjoy

@CreditWarriorOne - Sorry to resurrect a thread from two weeks ago, but I had a question about this offer. I think that I have an offer too, but wanted to confirm what it looks like. Underneath my checking there's a link that says 'Earn 20,000 bonus points' and it takes me to Propel application when I click it. There's also a propel ad in the righthand box. Is this what you saw?

I likely won't app any time soon, but was mostly curious.

@Pizzarina_Sbarro Yup, that's what I saw.
