SCT ?

[westcoastpeach1965]

I've just gotten 3 over the past 2 weeks and each was $2,000...Overstock, West Elm and Frontgate.  I actually applied for a Visa from Comenity, but never got a response and then received these just pre-approved.  I think they are not so stingy with their store cards.  My credit scores are slowly going up, but myfico and credit karma still haven't registered that I paid off all my cards mid-April, so once my score goes up, I'm hoping to get another good Visa.  I'm about to move back to California and would like for my scores to be high when I do and also to have some good credit just in case employment isn't found right away.  Don't really need anymore store cards, but I did want the one from Frontgate!

Are you SURE about that? Ive never ever heard of a SCT with Barclays.. that is a Comenity thing

The Barclays thing isn't a traditional SCT pre-approval the way Comenity is, but it's sort of a pre-qualified thing.  I got it with their Williams-Sonoma Visa card last year, but much like Comenity's Visas and Mastercards are now, it is technically an application with a hard pull on your report.  That being said, it was solid and I was instantly approved, despite having been declined for the Barclays Rewards card a few weeks prior.  They gave me a SL of $2K, which jumped to $4500 at the six-month mark.  It's been a good card.
