SCT - Pottery Barn

Is there a super secret trick to this one? I can get almost every other SCT to work. I've even tried on sites that I don't want just to see if it was me, but others have worked. Just earlier Williams-Sonoma worked, but not Pottery Barn. My husband has a PB card but I'd like to have him cancel his and get one in my name instead. I'm pretty sure he would never set foot in a Pottery Barn or shop online Smiley LOL It is driving me nuts!

Re: SCT - Pottery Barn

I am definitely no expert on here but have found some cards are more inclined to prompt the "pre-approved" pop-up than others. **shrug** I just assumed the ones which don't pop-up have more stringent criteria. SCL has worked for VS, WS and J. Crew for me. Others not so much. Hope this helps.

Starting Score: 621
Current Score: TU 685 EQ 687 EXP 699
Goal Score: 700

Re: SCT - Pottery Barn

Pottery Barn is pretty easy to come up. Put 2k furniture in you cart and then check out.  If it doesn't come up try incognito window.  I put 2k in and got a 2500 approval pop up.  Accepted but didn't purchase.  Didn't have the card number yet so I went to store got card number.  Registered online access.  Called up Robolady and instantly got CLI to 3500.  Then got an additional 20 percent off email.  Dinning Room furniture was already 30 percent off.  So seemed a good deal to me.  So charged it and selected 0 percent financing.  A month later called up Robolady and got CLI to 5k.

  1. Some Comenity cards are through Comenity bank and some are through Comenity Capital, so you would be looking at EQ vs EX, so you could try entering the information the same as on  your EX report.  Why not just become an AU on his card?

IDK, but I believe Pizza1 is over $30k. My account is at $17.5 k and I've stopped requesting increases cause I don't want to give them ammunition to shut down the account from too many CLI requests.

I could. I probably should just do that. Comenity seems to love me more than they love him, though (lol). I have gotten CLIs on my cards while he's only gotten one CLI on his PB card in over a year. His Ex and Eq scores are both higher than mine and anytime I've used the PB card I usually pay it off in 1-2 billing cycles. My daughter has a wayfair card and has gotten several CLIs on hers as well. Comenity just doesn't show him love so I hoped if I had a PB card in my name it would have a higher limit. Then I could add him to it and up his open credit.

 

Also, I didn't realize there was a difference between Comenity Capital and Comenity Bank so thank you for that info!! Smiley Happy

KayKay,

 

As usual - you rock! I got it to work using my Eq info. I checked what it showed on myfico and for some reason my address is showing as my mom's address. No idea why it shows up as her address, but it worked! Thanks so much!! Now I know how I can get it to pop up Smiley Happy
