BCE approval!!

I've been kicking around applying for this and the Barclay Rewards MC.  Latest pulled EX was 677.  

Applied for BCE first and was approved, but only $1000.  Smiley Sad

I had told myself I would apply for both no matter what, but now I am not so sure.  I really wanted the Amex.  Such a low limit makes me kind of rethink the Barclay. Not sure if I should go ahead and do it or not. 

But anyway, I'm pretty stoked about the BCE approval.  I don't usually cold app.  Got the 14 day notice at application (not instant) but immediately logged onto email and there was the approval email!!

Re: BCE approval!!

TU 659 through WM card, but Its due for a refresh in a day or two and I expect it to be up since some of my info has changed (For the better)

CK has TU at 697 (not reliable I know) I expect it will be somewhere between the two.

Re: BCE approval!!

I was in your place 6 months ago. My TU was 631 when I apped for Barclay (approved $2K). Four months later apped for BCE (approved $6K, EX pull). Since then Barclay raised my CL to $3,300 on day of 6th statement. Congrats! And go for the BCE!

Re: BCE approval!!

I was going to post saying not to rethink the barclay if you want it, as I've had mine since june @ 3K and only got a $1000 amex approval but you beat me to it. Congrats on both approvals.
