Barclay Two Applications

This may be in the wrong forum, if so I apologize.

 

Just wondering how Barclay "feels" about 2 applications within a short time of each other.  Like say one today and one later today or tomorrow etc.

 

Thanks!!

Re: Barclay Two Applications

I would recommend to space out applications with Barclays for at least 6 months. That is what worked for me and I just got my 3rd card from them.

Re: Barclay Two Applications

I was curious because I just got the SM card and wanted to get the US Air card before it completely goes kaput.

 

Thanks for the info though Smiley Happy

In this case I would go against my common sense and play Russian roulette ...after all it is a great sign up bonus for the AF and 1 purchase. Good luck if you decide to go ahead!

Re: Barclay Two Applications

I got the Arrival+ and US Airways cards on the same day back in November.  Auto-approval for the Arrival+ (first app), had to call in and recon for the US Airways (second app), but it was no problem and I was approved for $10k on each.

 

Edit: Oh, and I ended up with only one INQ on TU.  Smiley Happy

Re: Barclay Two Applications

6 months between apps seems to do the trick.
