Shell, Uline, Best Buy, and Other Business Tradeline Approvals

[Anonymous]

Hi @chalupaman , how old is your business? I have an LLC that is only two months old.  I have a few tradelines (Uline, Crown Office Supplies, Nav, Summa Office Supplies) but none have reported yet so I don't have a Paydex score.  I'm debating whether to apply for a Shell Gas Card or wait for a month or two.  Thanks!

I'd give it a month or so and try it! I made my LLC about a year and 5 months ago but have had my business longer that in name!

wow congrats man! is this considered an app spree? Also did you file as SP or LLC for shell business? I am on the 2nd page and it ask me for my SSN and such will it be a HP for these as well? Also how many of these came up as INQ on your personal or only business? I'm trying to get a paydex score but I'm gonna have to setup business savings first, (As business checking is min. deposit is too high atm 1.5K-2K) and I'm min-maxing investments currently.

I applied as an LLC for the Shell Business. Not sure about the HP because I don't have my business CRs in front of me, but I've never seen any of these business applications show up on my personal credit reports as inquiries, so there's that. BTW, thanks!

So Grainger finally approved me for a net 30 line of $1000 that reports to Dun and Bradstreet each month! It was just at the time, the LLC was still new and I had to wait 60-90 days. It's long been past that and this time was much different. They also told me that if your business has already been registered with the secretary of state for a while and they can find your DUNS number, you'll usually get approved pretty easily. 

The last TL I'm waiting on is one with Creative Analytics for $10k potentially and I'm all good.
