I don’t know why I torture myself like this. I went lurking on the pre approval site for BB&T full well knowing I need to hold off applying for anything until this fall. Lo and behold 3 offers came up. As tempting as it is... I just can’t do it now. Anyone have any of these cards though? In the future may consider.

Congratulations on your preapprovals! Seems like the Spectrum Cash Rewards along with Bright are the most popular from what I've seen around here.
Got APPROVED for all 3 last month. Pulled the trigger on the Bright and Spectrum. Used 1 of them for a balance transfer since they offer one year no APR and the other I'm using for groceries. You can get all 3 in 1 day no hard pull what so ever. I have seen that whatever CL they give you on 1 card it will be the same for all of them. Mine was $3500 and when I applied for the 2nd one mins later it was the same CL. Can't beat getting 2 cards with only a soft pull!

Did I read that right, the BB&T credit cards are applied and approved for only using a soft pull? No prior relationship necessary? DP? Now that it is April do we know if that has changed to HP?

Correct, they are soft pull approvals IF they have offers and you click them from the Accept button on the offer page. Be careful not to click out and then apply "cold" because THAT's a HP. I tried to help my sister by telling her about it but she didn't apply then, she went back later and just applied. Oops. Also, I didn't have a relationship then but added checking and savings so I'd get the extra cashback.
@justjac2 That's good to know! I just got approved March 24 for three cards, wondering if I should get the fourth because of AAOA. But who can pass up an approval on SP!?
