I know this thread has been inactive for a month but wanted to share a call I had with Diners.  I currently have the Premier and Elite card.  I called them because I was telling my brother who has the Premier to apply for the Elite last year but he waited and waited and then when he decided to apply, he couldnt.  Fast forward to today.  I called Diners and asked about future applications.  The CSR said that the initial onslaught of applications were doing their initial testing of the application process.  That made me nervous so I asked were my two accounts safe.  I was told they were safe and that they wouldn't be closing any accounts that had been opened unless the cardholder had issues.  No idea when the application process will be back on line though.


thanks for the update. Smiley LOL

What is the age requirement? Its not 18?


They kept telling me I had to be 21 to qualify for the card and that's why I had gotten denied for it when the apps were still availalbe. Not even a HP was done.

Thanks... I like my cards but I also like the idea of the "Hidden tradeline" idea with Diners and the huge limits don't hurt either if you know what I meanSmiley Tongue

Re: Diners Club suspended applications

I absolutely love hidden trade lines.  I have two.  The Diners Club card at 50K and the JP Morgan Select at 25K.  I don't have to worry about paying before the statement cuts and can revolve like a regular card does (if needed) without FICO ramifications. Smiley Very Happy

@android01,

 

I am 1,000% with you on this one.  I really hope they open their applications back up SOON.
