Fifth Third Card Offer

Cory88 — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 13:00:10 GMT

When I was in the branch the other day they said I was pre approved for a credit card. I asked if it was SP or HP one point he said SP then went to HP he did not know for sure he said I worked for them for over 15 years and did not know. LOL. Does anyone know?

My own experience was that it led to a hard pull but caveat emptor, my data point is pretty old.

5/3 is HP for application AND HP for CLI.

Also, they have no card that is anything more than "Mehh"

2% Card "No FTF" if they are holding 100k+ of your money

1.67% card "No FTF"

1% card "No FTF"

and a Secured card at 0% with FTF, with HPs for App and for CLI, and _will not_ graduate.

yeah it will be very likely be a HP

I can't also see why bother getting it, no SUB, no intro APR period?

and the fact that he doesn't know is pretty indicative of how that bank functions as a whole, but if they want to keep throwing out free checking SUBs, I'll gladly keep taking their money every 13 months

In my opinion the only opportunity to take advantage of with 5/3, is their welcome bonus. $300-$400 per sign up, they pay near immediately upon completion of offer.
