Barclays

I applied and got approved for the rewards mc on Saturday. The account is already listed on my Experian credit report in 2 business days! Is this normal practice for them? I'm definitely not complaining because it dropped my utilization drastically! Just seems weird.

Yes, the are known to be super fast, I do not think that there are another company can be faster than Barclays. The like to establish their mark/territory.

Same here. My Barclays hit my credit reports literally within 24 hours or so of being approved. It was at least another five days or so after that before I got my card and activated it.

Just got approved on recon yesterday and they already reported my account as paid for July on Experian. I got approved for the Amazon card on Wednesday and they reported the same thing today. I haven't actually received either card yet, but I'm happy about the early reporting, as it raised my available credit, dropped my uti to 2% and raised my Experian score by 7 points.
