Barclay's Apple Rewards Card

[Anonymous]

Been rebuilding since October 2017. Applied on 5/4/18. Auto denial.

Today I received letter in the mail stating insufficient history with credit cards & retail accounts as reason.

I called the 24hr recon line I found here in the forum & after verification of personal information and some questions about why I hadn't applied for any credit accounts until 2017, I was approved for $500.

Not sure if this card grows easily or not but I'm just happy to be out of the hell whole that was my credit situation just 8 months ago.

Stats:
Pulled TU: 659
Util. 4%
AaoA 5months
1 derogatory, a paid collection that falls off summer 2019

Yea, hopefully it'll grow at some point as my scores go up. I buy most of my tech for school from apple so it definitely will come in handy

I've had a Barclay's VISA for 3.5 years. It started at $1000 and is now at $7,400. I transitioned it to an Apple Rewards Card about a year ago.

Well thats good news! Seems like it'll grow as long as I stay diligent with my credit & continue to improve

Congratulations on your Barclay approval!!

Seems like Apple won't be with them long, though. May be some info for you in the 'credit cards' section

Congratulations! I started off with a $4500 credit limit and I'm now at $7500. I've had the card for a year and Barlcay has done an auto cli of $1500 every 6 months.
