Barclay's JetBlue Card Craziness

Back on September 26th I applied for the JetBlue MC and was flat out denied due to too many recent apps. Since I only had 3 inquiries on TU I decided to re-apply on November 29th thinking 60 days between apps was okay but was denied again for the same reason. Today I received the letter in the mail and decided to give them a call to get an explanation for the reason they denied me. I was quickly transferred over to the customer security department where they explained that I should have received a letter after the September app explaining that they needed some personal docs (ID, SS card & proof of address) to verify my identity and the only reason why they denied the second app is because they hold apps for 120 days. 

 

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

That sucks, sorry. Never had an issue like that, but have heard stories of things like this happening. So I'm guessing now you're out of luck until the four months expires?

Re: Barclay's JetBlue Card Craziness

They actually said if I send them my docs I can have it reviewed with a new HP. We’ll see what they say....

Re: Barclay's JetBlue Card Craziness

Did they not tell you that in September or did you not try to recon during your first app?

I tried to recon with the first app but they shot me down. They never told me I needed to send in docs until yesterday.

Oh, that is a bummer. Sorry to hear that. What a mess.

Nasty? Sound more like disorganized to me.
