Victoria Secret Card

Anonymous — Wed, 19 Aug 2015 15:46:57 GMT

Okay,

So I have tried the shopping cart trick five times with Victoria Secret, i'm getting no results.

Anybody have any advice?

I also did the shopping cart trick with buckle and got the preapproval the same day i attempted for Victoria Secret.

I havent attempted for anything else.

I do have a secured card with Capital one as welll as a platinum with capital one.

I tried for discover, after getting a preapproval letter a month ago and was denied.

I have at least 15 inquiries on my credit because of bad timing with school financing.

Also due to someone in my family stealing my CC utilization for this month has been marked as 80%

My scores are all at least 608,

My EQ 610

My Trans 623

My EX 632

I will begin gardening soon but i just want a few more revolving accounts to assist during my gardening.

walmart has underwear too

I think you may need to garden awhile and let that 80% UTI drop about 60%. The inquires are adding to that as well.

I've tried dozens of times with VS and have never been able to get the popup. But at least the scenery is real nice.

No luck with VS either but then again my stats are lower than yours. I've only had success with the SCT with Marisota and Simply Be.

It makes me so mad waiting. I'm impatient. I honestly want to just apply. But I know I shouldn't of course. My utilization should go down as soon as they report it cause immediately I paid the entire balance so I wouldn't get that reported by of course you see what happened. Ugh. I'm impatient.

I feel your pain. I actually to a hard pull app to VS just a week before learning about the SCT. I received the 7-10 day message yet till this day have not received a letter. I called and they said they will resend it and could not give me the answer over the phone. Still nothing. Someone mentioned the possibilty of them maybe just needing to verify identity, income etc but I'm assuming that time frame has passed. Sucks hearing how its an easy card to get yet, not having any luck both ways and just waiting.

Try clearing your cookies. Try using a different browser. Also try going incognito within the browser you're using. I love my VS card!! I have the VS Angel Forever card (black) and I love the coupons, gift cards, rewards, being able to use it at Bath & Body Works, etc. I'm truly a huge fan.

Good Luck!!!

Don't give up! Try a different browser. Clear your cache. This was the easiest card for me to get, my scores were really low at the time. Keep trying.

Yes! Don't give up, keep trying and eventually it will happen. I worked the Total Rewards Visa consistently for a couple of months, and I got it! I'm working on icomfort. it's become a hobby now, I just can't get the pop up working. It will happen one day. VS was easy for me, but my daughter is still trying. Hang in there!

Same here; every browser, multiple different systems. I've gotten 25 other popups, but no VS.

I could never get that pop-up, but got others from Comenity. I stopped trying for it since I really didn't need the card. I only wanted it since my step-mother loves their store and buys a lot of things when she comes to the States to visit me.

The only other suggestion I can offer is to make sure your address used for SCT matches your address on EX perfectly.

Always do. I even tried a previous address listed in my report.

D you think the reason why I may not be getting the pop up is because I HAD a collection under my name bc my mom used my name to get cable? Then never returned the stuff when she went past due? I paid it off after discovering it a year later.

Also do you think I should have good chances since I was instantly preapproved for buckle?
