US Bank Altitude Reserve Approval Chance?

Hello all,

 

I just applied couple days ago but is pending. I tried to call the recon number but no one answered for over 30min. I decided to hang up.

 

What's the typical outcome with pending US Bank application? I did not get any notification about a credit pull which is weird. 

 

Inquiry 1/6, 1/12, 3/24; new account 1/6, 1/12, 3/24. I have US Bank cash+ but no banking relationship. Good scores 790+ across the broad. 30 active cards but all good history.

@csryang  What number did you call?

 

You can call U.S. Bank Credit Card Underwriting Services at (800) 947-1444.  The phone menu has the option to enter your social security number to get a status update but it sometimes doesn't work as intended.  You can also press "0" to speak directly with a representative.

Re: US Bank Altitude Reserve Approval Chance?

The majority of USBank card applications go to manual review; don't interpret yours doing so as a sign of ilikely denial.

 

Inquiries/new accounts are within their threshold, if they pulled from TU or EQ it could take up to 24 hrs for you to get a notiification of the HP depending upon what you are using to monitor.

 

Nothing you've shared would be an obvious red flag or a pointer toward denial, as long as you don't have any of the 3 major CRAs or Sagestream locked or frozen.

Re: US Bank Altitude Reserve Approval Chance?

I see, thanks for your response!

 

I called again and this time waited for 24 min and spoke with a representative. 

 

She said the system needs time to verify my US Bank relationship even though she can clearly see that I have a US Bank Cash+ card. She says it takes 1-2 days to verify the US bank relationship and after that, it will then check the credit report. She said I should get a response within 5-7 days. 

 

It seems that it's a manual review. Not sure why US Bank is doing it this slow. Oh well, we will see how things go.

I'm curious what the outcome was. Currently debating on getting this card myself.

Since the OP hasn't been back to the forums since last summer and isn't likely to respond this thread is now locked.

 

@gloveulent, feel free to start a new thread if you would like.
