Shell gas card

Anonymous — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 05:52:05 GMT

How difficult is the Shell gas card to get? I have a station right down the road from me and this would be a useful and conveinent card for me. Fico scores from this sit TU--630, EX--630 EU--590. Anyone have this card and with what scores? Thank You.

I just applied at the begining of the month, and got it. Like everyone else, they pulled EX. At 647, that is definitely my lowest score. No lates, just a short history, high utility, new accounts, and more inquires than I really want to admit.

I don't know how closely they look over the credit report, but score wise I'd say it is probably worth a try.

Well I just applied and got the 30 day wait answer. I know what that usually means. I have been on a roll lately though and thought I would give it a shot. It would just be a really handy card for me to build with. I live in a tiny town and that is one of just a couple of stations in my town and a block from my house.

November 2007 I applied (pre-approvals) for Phillips/Conoco and Shell and got a "wait and see" for both. Within a week the pin arrived and the card a little later.

You may still get it.

I applied for a Shell card in May '07. They pulled TU.
