I wouldn't count on it more but you can try. They pull mainly TU.

I wouldn't try. They're one of those companies that would make it impossible to get a clean cut approval without controversary lol

The only thing Credit Karma is good for is the free credit report. Everything else is worthless. Use Data Pulls Database and pre-approved webpages if it exist for Barclay.

Oh ... ok. I got approved about 2 weeks ago with no preapproval. Just wanted to try and see my luck and was also my last app prior to gardening . Instantly approved for $3k, called them back and ask for CLI and they added $1k .

They "recommended" the arrival plus

I guess you have good chances of approval. Arrival + has AF though.

I don't want the arrival +. Isn't it like a miles card or something

As I've said before, I personally don't trust the Barclays Prequal page yet. I'm sure there's a reason it's not public lol. You can input any name and last four and get a "pre approval" with a fixed rate, even.

Good info. When I app I went ahead to the application and didn't do the preapp. I'm glad it went Ok.

I have to agree.

Arrival and Arrival + are miles. You don't have to have a very high TU fico for either. a clean report with low inquiries and score of 650 can get either.

If you want a card and have a decent TU with low inquiries, maybe go for the rewards MasterCard.
