Pending Applications of Doom (Barclay's and AMEX)

[Anonymous]

Sucks, but CONGRATS on the Green. I guess its consolation for the torture. I'm pretty sure I'll be denied too so I won't be calling, but will just wait for the letter. Thanks for the update.

EDIT: Subsequently approved for the BCE this morning. $5k CL. Still waiting for that 2nd INQ.

Thanks for the congrats! I'm perfectly happy with the outcome as I still ended up with two AMEX cards, one charge card and one revolver. It's funny, because around this time last year I could only get approved for low limit secured cards and now I'm in with AMEX!

Did you go and get approved for the Apple Rewards card btw?  I'm seeing it in your signature, the Sallie Mae card is definitely #1 on my radar now that Sallie Mae/Navient made super good by removing any negative information from my previously defaulted student loans with them...

Yeah, I applied for the Barclay Apple Card and I was approved with an initial $1300CL. I saw a previous post where someone mentioned having the Apple Card and it was their foot in the door with Barclay - which resulted in a Sallie Mae approval. I'm pretty much going the same route. Gardening for awhile at this point.

Congrats on the approvals! I'll be there someday!
