No credit card required

I submitted an application for this card about 10 days ago and it went pending with a message saying it will take 2-4 weeks to process my application, they pulled EX. Ten days later and still showing pending on check status page. I called them and they told me that a letter was sent to me 5 days ago and they mentioned that "due to credit bureau discrepancy" I need to follow the instructions in the letter so they can proceed with the application.
I am hoping it's as simple as mailing a copy of my ID but I am worried they will request access to ARS.
Looking through data points people with pending applicaitons either get approved/denied a couple of days later and some mentioned being denied due to secondary bureau information but I haven't seen people waiting for letters in the mail. One person mentioned being approved with a frozen ARS.
Thoughs ?
======================================================
I received a letter today asking me to submit SSA-89 by mail which is used by banks to verify someone's SSN. I will mail it tomorrow and keep checking the status.
Do you think they would waste their time verifying me and denying me later for credit related reasons ?

I mailed the requested form and it was delivered on Dec 31st and today towards the end of the day I received an approval email. I checked the status on the website and they approved me for $4,500
Yes all my 3rd parties bureaus such as ARS/Sagestream etc where on ice and remain on ice just won't get instant approvals with several lenders.. I didn't get letter or anything just went pending for a few days.. So might be another issue with your reports that cause them concerns. Suppose you will see when you receive letter.
Good luck and happy holidays
Hi..Could you please tell me what ARS stands for?!..Thanks
3rd party reporting agencies beyond eq/tu/experian. They aggregate inquiries across all CRA's among other things..
These include Innovis/ARS/Sagestream/EWS, etc... A bit of what they are is

Ditto. I have several third party bureaus frozen as well
I used to want this card so bad when I lost my Sam's Club membership and thus lost its credit card. Good luck on your result.
^^
That's exactly why I want it since Sams membership doesn't make sense anymore. Why didn't you get it ?
