Re: BARCLAYS

I had to recon with mid 600s and I was denied for inquiries. Only reason.

Re: BARCLAYS

Congratulations! I was going to apply for a better barclay card but I didn't have much faith so I just applied for the apple rewards. I realize the mistake I made already, and I havent even received the card in the mail yet! Smiley Sad

It's ok.  You can move the limit later when you grab the card you want.  I would call Barclay and let them know you are trying to finance a high-end Apple item and will be needing a higher limit without another pull. That seems to be how it's done with that card.

Re: BARCLAYS

Will definitely try that. 2k is a fairly decent limit for me considering the fact that I'm a student with fairly low income and short credit history. I will definitely try that after I receive the card and I will update you. The woman I spoke with to verify my identity was very friendly, so hopefully I get her again. Any customer service is great after dealing with capital one's foreign reps that I can barely understand Smiley Happy

Re: BARCLAYS

Very nice indeed with that score...Barclay won't even through a look in my direction since I burned them in my Ch. 13...

Congrats!  The Barclay Rewards MC was my first unsecured major CC on my rebuilding journey, and they've treated me well over the past 2 years.

Quite a number when I was approved, they seem forgiving of some past baddies if you're more recent (1+ year) has been good.
