I've heard people have even been approved with scores below 600. I guess the Visa Black card is like First Premier Bank pretending to be the CSP or Amex Platinum.

I know someone with that card that wants people to think they make a bunch of money. I snickered at them when the pulled it out at a restaurant. I flashed my CSP that earns me more points and looks just as "cool".

my bro also got the black visa card invitation as well, saw the ginormous paper credit card with information printed on, then we saw the annual fee, we laughed and laughed and laughed. I think someone on forum has one and claimed that it was worth to him/her with all travel perks or something, hey as long they have one and got use for it, who are we to judge?

...lol...I still want it. Even if I don't have it long. Idk why, I know th CSP is better (I want he CSP more anyway), but I still would like to have th Black Card. Hoprfully I'll get over this initial credit high soon so I won't want it.

They send them out all the time. Invitation is just a euphemism for advertising. This card is a common topic.

I've got a friend who's a mailman .. oops... Letter Carrier .. in a medium small town out west.

Out of 500 people, a couple of weeks ago, he dropped off maybe 75 of these "invitations".
