FNBO Evergreen Not Geofenced?

Awesome, thanks!

I just happened to discover this today before seeing this thread.  It appears to be their latest 2% card release.  I know of two others.  The first required a banking relationship (FNBO Complete Rewards, the yellow card.)   The other green card (FNBO Cashback Rewards) was offered until recently, although I'm not sure of any differences.  

FNBO is a good lender.  I had a card of theirs for a BT offer once and had a good experience.

They are all solid 2% cashback cards although not as competitive in terms of APRs and Fees as some others.  And I believe some members had found them to be geofenced on previous products.

@Aim_High Ty for more information. Fnbo definitely is an awesome bank. Although their Apr is a high I guess if you pay of balance there should be no problem.

It looks like nice 2% cash back card you can ach into your account cash back. Is this bank GEO fence on this card, when you go to the website and put in your zip code it hung for minute then went to the application, at this did not go through the application. Yes also would like to know about rcon and did it ask for up load of your ID. How long did it take to know if you wher approved.

Also, are you able to open a checking account with FNBO outside the geofence once you have gotten this card?

Maybe it breaks down the FNBO geofence for their other credit cards, in case the evergreen visa approval did not.

What I got out of looking around website is the bank is geofenced but sends you to "FNBO Direct" for outside their area for online banking. Direct has their own less appealing credit cards but looks like main FBNO 2% card is not geofenced.

I am outside their fence (Atlanta) and one day just got a pre approval offer in the mail.  Didn't know how solid that mailer was but was bored and had just been on an app spree (got about 7-8 cards that same month).   I went online to the website put in the numbers on the mailer and they gave me 15K instantly!    No proof of ID or POI.  Used that card to take advantage of a BT offer that came with the Green Card (not Evergreen card the other green card).    So far so good with them no issues.
