Barclays Arrival+?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'd really like a good travel card and this seems to best fit my needs BUT, TU is 680, I was denied a CLI 3/5 on my Rewards card issued 1/15 when I was denied the US Airways card at the same time.

So, I'm not sure my chances are very good. I have several cards with CLs ranging from $5-15K

What say the experts?

Citi & BoA seem to dislike me

What were the denial reasons and did you recon?

I forget exactly but, tried recon on the US Air and they said give it some time. Now that card is gone

I don't know if Barclays treats CLI the same way as new apps, unlike Chase where it seems easier to get another card that to get a CLI. I also am curious what version of TU they use. Anyone know?

What was your score when approved for the Rewards MC?

They use TU08.  Assuming you are the 99% that get TU pulled otherwise you are the unlucky one that gets an EX pull or eq pull

According to MyFico TU8 675, TU Bankcard8 697, Barclays own FICO TU 680, My Ex & Eq are both over 700 but, I checked CCMP and they've always pulled TU

Good Rule of thumb with barclay's it to wait 6 months from your first CC with them to apply of another.

OK, Thanks. I appreciate that advice which means July. I was hoping sooner since I wanted to set travel plans for July but, it is what it is, as they say.
