Sounds like an approval.
I wished I would have read this thread before I accepted a preapproved pop up from Boscov's. I just posted this thread under applications.
Boscov’s preapproval – Pending?
Yesterday, was shopping Boscov’s online purchased $100 in home good products, doing some redecorating, and a pop up for preapproved Boscov’s credit card, accepted and approved for $2500.
Today, no notification that order was process, therefore, check my order status on Boscov’s web site and my order is still “in process”. What does this indicate, the preapproval was not approved or are they going to do a HP? No alerts from credit monitoring services about a hard pull. Any thoughts?
UPDATE:
On 3/20/18 recieved Boscov's credit card ($2500 sl) in the mail. Set up a online account than immediately pressed the luv button, instantly increased by another $2000, sl now $4500. Signed out and back in again pressed the luv button again, instantly increased by an additional $2000, sl now $6500. Repeated for a 3rd time, got the 7-10 day message. All SP.
Yesterday 5/20/18, exactly 2 months, requested cli by pressing the luv button, instantly increased by $2000, sl now $8500. Signed out and back in again pressed the luv button, again instantly increased by additional $2000, sl now $10,500. Repeated for a 3rd time, got the 7-10 day message. All SP.
I read on MyFico forum about this process to do while setting up new account. But it also worked for requesting cli. I think I may be on the every 2 months train for cli. I wonder how high Comenity will go? I will never need this high spend but it is great padding for my utilization.
Yesterday, recieved email "welcome to your new Boscov's credit card. Also received my order that same day. Funny thing is still have not received the Boscov's credit card in the mail yet.
In the past, I accepted pop up approvals from comenity than almost immediately CLOSED. My fault was too many in a very short time (2 weeks) but lesson learned. They hit all 3 credit bureaus as open account, indictating "Closed by grantor", no balance.
This time, I am hoping it doesn' happen again. I will keep a very close watch on my credit reports and keep you posted.
