Update called today I was put on hold immediately denied what a waste of an inquiry. I'll be shamed time to lay my seed and garden.

Did they give the reason for the denial, or just say wait for the letter?

 

If its fixable, and probably is, make sure that issue(s) is fixed before the next app with them.

 

I would suggest 6 months before trying with them again.

Thank you for your comment on my cards. The reason why I applied for care credit was because 1 my dentist accepts it 2. my dental I have a serious tooth problem that needs both surgical removal and implant tooth. And I don't have the $$$ because I wiped my account paying off my credit card debts,collections(pay for delete), and family members who I borrowed money from. 3 is for my pets. 4 is for finance even 14 Apr for 48 months or 24 months 0% Apr finance is fine. Why are you saying it's not a card for ppl with good credit?

Peanut, Care Credit is great for those who need it! Even people with thick files and excellent credit use it.

I didnt mean to say it's not a card for ppl with good credit...What i was trying to say is that this card helps ppl to re-establish credit, and since you already had good cards with great banks, i was just curious that's all.  I see it works for you and that's what matters.
