I hate waiting!!!

I know patience is a virtue that I apparently really do not have. I have been playing around on different websites today trying for the SCT, I took to MF to see what others were getting for pop ups and I saw the NFL Visa and the Williams Sonoma Visa. Lo and behold, both of them came up with the CONGRATULATIONS! screen for me. Stupidly apped the NFL card (I am really a Buckeye fan, but there aren't any NCAA credit cards that I know of so I went with the Bengals) insta- "we need more time to process your request" status. I checked their status website right after that and it said denied. I do have their Apple Rewards card, but thought the NFL card could be useful for getting us to a game sometime in the near future since we have never been to an NFL game. Grrrr! I KNEW better! Alas, I am locking myself in the garden until at the earliest June, more likely Oct./Dec. Hopefully when I am ready for Barclay's again, I can get one of these two cards. Now to go and find my gardening tools.... SP CLI are the only things in my near future! Hopefully by the time I am ready to apply for more, I will have scores of 700+ (several baddies are due to fall off in the next couple months!)

Slowly rebuilding, learning as I go, but that's the beauty of learning...You never have to stop!

I should add, I didn't take the bait on the Williams Sonoma, even though the bakeware was calling my name... I KNOW I won't get the approval! A girl can dream though, and I will get there one day! Smiley Very Happy

 

I suppose this means I should use my Apple Card sometime soon so that Barclays knows I can pay my debts back! Hmmm... which product do I want???

I have to wait 2 years. It's like watching concrete harden. Some days, when I am really bored...I swear the clock goes backwards. Hope that helps. Smiley Tongue

Re: I hate waiting!!!

LOL I am the same way since I started getting instant approvals last year. With the exception of considering a Discover card before heading to the garden, I am done adding cards for a while. 

 

If you really want the NFL card, call and have them move some of your available credit from your Apple card to the new NFL card to open it.
