Got a ten day notice so may have been a wasted pull. Time will tell. 


I would suggest that you call.  From what I have read, Barclays business cards usually need more information before approval and aren't instant approvals like Amex, Chase or Citi.

Depends more times than not you need to speak with someone on this card, but instant approvals have and do happen.. Read a huge thing on FT on this card still debating on whether to try for it, just don't want 101 questions on my business, etc.. Trying to decide if I will apply as a LLC or sole proprietorship as heard sole is alot easier from what i have seen and read.

 

Application status for business is also a different URL than personal and this is it... Login if approved will be different than regular non-business cards as well

CC, I agree sole proprietorships w/ SS# are easier than sole proprietorships w/ FID #, Corps and LLCs

 

I'm tempted to apply as a Corp just to see if I get an instant approval, lol!

Re: Barclays AA card

I applied as a sole prop. Not sure if I should call in or just wait it out. I don't feel like playing 20 questions about my business. My business is perfectly legit with decent income. I just don't feel like jumping through hoops with sending paperwork etc. I have or had business cards with chase/amex/citi for a few years.

Re: Barclays AA card

I called in and had to speak with two different people about my business. They started asking what parts of the world my clients were located in which seemed unnecessary.
