I was approved for a Barclaycard 3 days ago. $2000 limit. I received a pre-approval for a new Capital One card. (Venture) I've heard of so many people getting a Credit line decrease or worse a closed acct from Barclays if they apply too soon. Any stories? I really love capital one and I would love to try and get that card. I just don't want to screw myself for Barclays. Thank you!


A few new cards wont cause a sweat with barclays. I think i got like 12 within a year of getting my barclays. most they ever did is deny me a cli at about a years mark

I wouldn't worry about it.

 

The adverse action from Barclays would only happen if you went on a total spree, and even then it's rare.

Re: New application after Barclaycard

Hi everyone! My very old post from August some how got bumped. Since it's here, I might as well update. :-) I have the Venture, Quicksilver Visa, and Victoria's secret CC since opening Barclays. They have left me alone. Hoping for an auto CLI next month! I actually like Barclay and am happy to stick it out with them. I did notice they've been pulling my credit reports often. SP. They're checking up on me! Lol :-) I don't live in fear of them and if you're thinking about getting a new Barclaycard and are worried about AA I wouldn't stress, unless you're planning on going cray cray lol
