Barclay Rewards Card

Have you been approved for a Barclays Card with a 650ish score? Looking to add a good rewards card. Love my Discover but limit isn't as high as I would like, wondering if my CL would be higher with a Barclays.

Thanks!

You might be approved.. but with their different cards, the criteria changes dramatically. The apple finacing card I've seen people be approved with scores barely scratching 600... other cards, it's a hit or miss. If you're worried about limit though, Barclays wouldn't be my first choice.

+1. On the Rewards card, Barclays gave me my lowest limit in 25 years, less than 1/3rd of my next lowest. On the other hand, they gave me decent limit on their US Airways card earlier.
