A letter from Hooters?

Anonymous — Tue, 27 May 2008 12:38:20 GMT

I got a letter from Hooters last Friday. It stated that my CL was based on them not having my Income information missing or they where unable to verify it. They want me to fax a copy of my W-2 or a recent pay stub? Does this sound right? Anyone else get this letter before?

Thanks

I haven't read any posts regarding pay stubs and hooters, but I have read a bunch that speak about how stingy Hooters has become. Some people have posted that they couldn't get approved this year because they opened a mortgage in 2004, which I find pretty odd.

I know that a lot of creditors are tightening the reigns due to the current economy, and given the circumstances I don't think the request for a pay stub is out of the ordinary.

I also received the same letter. I fax in a copy of my paystub today and just call a minute ago to check my limit and they increased it 500 better then nothing i guess. good luck.

That's the exact same CL I got with the exact same income when I applied there last year. Perhaps there is a method to their madness.
